Biography

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Social Sciences where I am affiliated with the REMPEAT project. I am also an affiliated researcher at the Department of International Economics, Government and Business at Copenhagen Business School.

My research interests is in public opinion about socioeconomic inequalities that emerge from economic transformations – especially technological change and the green transition – and their political outcomes. My recent work pays particular attention to the role of unfairness linking these inequalities to political outcomes. I also maintain an interest in the implications of inequality in Singapore.
