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.

I aim interested in the social and political consequences of labour market changes in post-industrial West European countries. I also investigate how social policies can improve or worsen socio-economic inequalities arising form such labour market changes. I am especially interested in workplace automation, digitalisation. and the Green Transition. I also maintain an interest in the implications of inequality in Singapore.
