About me

As PhD candidate within NOWSTARS project, my research focusses on self-employment and temporary agency work in the Swedish labor market. More specificly, I'm curious about perceptions of employability and how they are shaped by contextual factors.

After a Bachelor in Business Administration I graduated with a M.Sc. in Applied Technology and Learning from Gothenburg University in 2016. Parts of the research work in my Master thesis resulted in a publication in 2019. After that I have completed free-standing courses in Psychology alongside a full-time career in the private sector to meet entry requirements for a PhD position within the field. I have been accepted to the PhD program in autumn 2021.
