Biography

I am an anthropologist and postdoc with a particular interest in the green transition. My research primarily involves bridging humanistic knowledge with private enterprises in the environment, climate, and energy sectors. I focus on the significance of gender in the green transition and the concept of applied research, exploring what 'applied' can, should, and has the potential to mean. I am associated with the Centre for Applied Ecological Thinking (CApE) and the HumanImpact research project. Previously, I completed an industrial PhD at the energy company SE, where I examined the possibilities and challenges of energy savings in the everyday life of ordinary citizens. My recent research work has centered on collaborations with companies such as Viking, Preferred Nature, and Bluetown, using a humanistic perspective to investigate workplace dynamics and cultural contexts in these environments.
