Personal profile

Research

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Service Studies at Lund University, where I am part of the Consumption, Marketing and Retail research group.

My research focuses on demand-side climate solutions, with particular attention to cultural changes in consumption and lifestyle among the global affluent, whose consumption contributes disproportionately to carbon emissions.

I currently work in the DISCo-project, a collaboration among six academic partners across three continents. The project draws on theories of practice to investigate how digital technologies can support and enable more sustainable forms of consumption in the sectors of food and mobility. These sectors are of particular interest because of their high carbon footprints and importance for everyday life.
