Short presentation

I'm a PhD candidate at the Department of Government. My research is primarily concerned with electoral turnout, with a special focus on voter abstention due to political dissatisfaction, indifference, and related concepts. I also teach comparative politics, focusing on political participation, Swedish politics and the EU.

Besides academia, I have worked as a data analyst for various government agencies, as a self-employed humanitarian photographer, and as a local trade union chairperson.
