About
There are too many interesting things to study to put myself in any one box and call that my field of expertise. I’m a quantitative social scientist with a love for data and methods. I hold a PhD in Geography and have a background in Economics and Development Studies. If I’m forced to narrow down my research field, I’d say I’m broadly interested in societal security and well-being issues. My doctoral work focused on community resilience to natural hazards and my postdoctoral work on transparency and accountability in the extractive industries. Most recently, I’m working on polarization and social cohesion in Norway.
