I am a researcher at the Institute H21 and professional co-worker at the University of Hradec Králové. I worked as a research associate at the Institute for evaluations and social analyses (INESAN) between 2017-2020. I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science from the Masaryk University, Czech Republic (2020). I was previously visiting researcher at the Central European University, Hungary (2017), University of Twente, the Netherlands (2014), and an exchange student at the University of Eastern Peidmont, Italy (2009).In my research I focus on electoral integrity, electoral frauds, elections, democratization, and the area of Central and Eastern Europe. On top of that, I just successfuly finished an international project supported by the IVF on identities of Visegrad countries' capitals.
