I am an interdisciplinary researcher working at both the Insittute for Futures Studies and the Stockholm Resilience Centre, Stockholm University.  I am driven by a deep curiosity to understand dynamics At the Institute for Futures Studies, I explore and develop testable explanations concerning the strength of norms under different levels of risk (e.g. climate change, pandemic). My work is highly collaborative and uses modelling also as a ’tool' for a research process in which different researchers, methods, and/or data are combined.
