About

I am the head of the research group Work, Health and Inclusion. The group has extensive expertise in labor market inclusion, organizational and psychosocial work environment, occupational health, and work–life balance.

I specialize in research on work inclusion and topics related to NAV, with a particular focus on competence development in NAV offices and the role of employers in advancing inclusion efforts.

In addition to research and management, I host KAI-podden, a podcast produced by the Center for Work Inclusion. In this podcast I have conversations with researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to explore issues such as work inclusion, social exclusion, and welfare policy.

I hold a master’s degree in psychology from the University of Oslo (2013) and a PhD in the study of professions from OsloMet (2020).
