I am an Assistant Professor of Didactics and the coordinator of the University of Crete's Teaching and Learning Support Centre (CTL TotT). I studied in the Department of Physics at the University of Crete and pursued postgraduate studies in Mathematics for Education in the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics at the University of Crete. I completed my doctoral studies in Mathematics Education at the Mathematics Education Centre of Loughborough University (United Kingdom).

I have received scholarships and distinctions from the State Scholarships Foundation (highest entrance score in the Department of Physics at the University of Crete), the Mathematics Education Centre of Loughborough University (doctoral dissertation with a submitted research proposal), the Emmanouil Saklambanis Bequest (doctoral studies in Mathematics Education), and the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme (Marie Skłodowska-Curie Seal of Excellence for the research proposal Social Networks and Emotions in Undergraduate Mathematics).

A central point of my research activity is Cultural-Historical Theory. From this perspective, I study the development of concept formation, the design of teaching approaches that foster generalisation and abstraction, and the relationship between phylogeny and ontogeny.
