About Me

I am associate professor of EU law from Hungary, teaching EU law at the Sapientia-Hungarian University of Transylvania in Romania (). I also work as freelance consultant in EU funded projects in the field of EU Internal Market law with focus on EU consumer law and policy. I participated in the past in other areas of law as well as project consultant, such as environmental law, public utilities law, judicial cooperation.  

In the field of consumer law and policy my research activity covers consumer loans, unfair contract terms law, unfair commercial practices, product safety and agrifood safety, products liability, Green Deal for consumers (the role of consumer law in the transition to circular economy), judicial cooperation in the field of European Private Law (consumer private law).
