Biography

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of International Economics, Government and Business at Copenhagen Business School. At LUT's Department of Social Sciences, I am a visiting scholar. I received my PhD from the University of Helsinki.

My research interests lie in the socioeconomic inequalities that emerge from economic transformations – especially technological change and the green transition – and their political consequences. My recent work pays particular attention to the role of perceived unfairness in this regard. I also maintain an interest in the implications of inequality in Singapore.
