Analytical Network Mapping for Complex, Sensitive Sources As a follow-up to my archival research on previously unpublished interrogation records, I mapped the interconnections between interrogators and individuals mentioned in the files, using Palladio by Standford University. By translating fragmented records into relational structures, this approach reveals patterns that are not immediately visible in the source material and supports interpretation in complex, sensitive contexts. Atatched is a glimpse of the mapped dataset. Names are redacted, but the interconnections remain visible.

Analytical Research for Complex and Sensitive Source Material Multi-month analytical research on previously unpublished archival interrogation records (1944, Cologne region), involving historically and ethically sensitive primary sources. My focus lay on decoding and transforming complex, unstructured materials into a research-ready dataset through variable definition and categorization. It required continuous analytical judgment, balancing reduction with responsibility towards the source. The project demonstrated that structure is never neutral, it shapes insight itself. Attached is an excerpt of my dataset, all names are redacted to preserve sensitivity.

Archival Research & History Reconstruction In a project, I translated and analyzed WWII archival files from the British National Archives to reconstruct a war crime. Collaborating with fellow researchers, I pieced together archival evidence, verified facts and, and crafted a narrative that made this complex history accessible and engaging for the public. This project showed me how detailed research can uncover hidden stories and bring history vividly into the present.
