About me

Since 2006, I have been working at the intersection of data, semantics, and software, contributing in building intelligent systems that deliver value to business and society. Born and raised in Athens, Greece, I currently work as Head of Ontology at Textkernel, in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where I lead a team of Data Professionals in developing and delivering a large cross-lingual Knowledge Graph in the HR and Recruitment domain. Academically, I hold a PhD in Knowledge Engineering and Management from National Technical University of Athens, and I have published several papers at international conferences, journals and books.  I am a regular speaker and trainer in both academic and industry venues, striving to bridge the gap between academia and industry.
