About
I have been employed as an R&D Adviser at NOVA since January 2023. I provide support across all phases of research projects, with particular responsibility for the operational phase. I also serve as project coordinator for a selection of major projects at NOVA, including HOUSINGWEL – the Centre for Housing and Welfare Research and the EU-funded project STRIDE.
Among my other administrative responsibilities, I serve as coordinator for NOVA publications (quality assurance workflow, registration in NVA etc). I am also the SVA representative in the innovation network at OsloMet, and the coordinator of SVAI – an informal network aimed at strengthening AI competence within Centre for Welfare and Labour Research (SVA).
I hold a master’s degree in Sociology from the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Oslo. Previously, I have worked as a research analyst at a social science research consultancy, and as a research coordinator and adviser at the University of Oslo (UiO) and the Institute for Social Research (ISF).
