I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Communication and Journalism at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In my dissertation project I aim to develop a comprehensive conceptualization of (dis)trust in the current media ecology. To this end, I seek to account for multiple news trustworthiness dimensions, as well as the trust attitudes of various actors who participate in the creation and interpretation of the news.

I hold a Master’s degree in communication, and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communication, both from the Hebrew University. My MA thesis, written under the guidance of Prof. Keren Tenenboim-Weinblatt, explored the various aspects of suspicion and distrust in the perceptions of journalists covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
