I am a Senior Lecturer and Reader at the Department of Arts and Cultural Science where I teach classes in archival studies, ethnology and cultural analysis. My research interests are diverse and include transport history, personal names, collectors and collecting, and rituals and traditions. After recently having finished the research project “Bicycle Freedom. Transgressing Physical, Spatial and Cultural Borders” I am currently researching train and railway enthusiasts.

Besides teaching and researching I am coordinating the Master’s programme in Archival Studies, Library and Information Studies, and Museum Studies, ALM. I have previously been the Coordinator of MACA, Master of Applied Cultural Analysis. I am also a member of the Nominating committee at the Joint Faculties of Humanities and Theology and the Course Syllabus Committee at the Department of Arts and Cultural Science.
