After my LL.M., I fell in love with academic research, writing and teaching and have made it my goal in life to succeed in these things. I am currently a Ph.D. student in my last year, a place won after a Master thesis on the effects of the Aarhus Convention on the European Court of Justice it's interpretation of article 263 TFEU that was awarded a nine. My current research is in line with the field that has held my interest since the start of my LL.M., judicial protection in the European Union. After this intense project, I would like to put my knowledge and expertise to use through either a multi-disciplinary research project with a more practical application, or in an analytical position with the government.
Other areas of study and research are European Environmental Law and Gambling Regulation within the Member States vis-a-vis Regulation by the Union. Although not pursuing publications on the subject, the (constitutional)history and politics of countries is the one area of interest that, to annoyance of my professor, takes up too much of my free time. Music of all genres, enjoying nature, culinary exploits, Islay single malts, watches and most importantly, shelves upon stacks upon piles of books are the non-legal things that keep me going. Please feel free to click on any of the links to see my life, c.v. or current research.
Although I don't have a wide on-line presence after having given up twitter and facebook, feel free to contact me through email (blog{at}fastmail.fm) or linkedin. The blog itself has a twitter account @euro_codex which I attempt to use for general EU (environmental) news.
