I am Teodora, a philologist fascinated by the metamorphoses of text on the Web and curious about the ways the Semantic Web unfolds. Following the threads of my never-ending quest how meaning and understanding work, I hold a PhD. in Marketing Communication, an MS in Creative writing and a Bachelor of Science in Classics. I also authored two books: The Brave New Text and Being Dialogic. Walking the talk of my commitment to creating dialogic moments through semantic annotations, from 2022, I am part of Ontotext, now Graphwise, working to create the company's knowldge graph and its related content. I also teach web writing to students at the Content Strategy Masters program in FH Joanneum.
