Physicist, Science Communicator, Researcher

About me

I'm a physicist based in Stockholm, currently a senior lecturer at the University of Oslo's Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. My PhD work was on phase-field modeling of crystal deformations and microplasticity; my current research looks at how AI shapes teaching and learning more broadly.

Alongside research and teaching, I work in science communication: I co-host the podcast Under Kappa, appear regularly on NRK's Abels tårn, and give talks on AI and learning. I'm currently writing a book on teaching with AI, forthcoming from Universitetsforlaget.
