I have a PhD in Library and Information Science. My research interests relate to information practices, reading practices and digital methods. I predominantly do research on two strands related to this, one focusing on how information about climate change and sustainability is spread, shaped and used on social media and other digital platforms. The other strand relates to reading and reading habits with a focus on new reading practices in digital environments.

In March 2022 I completed my PhD at the Swedish School of Library and Information Science. My thesis project was about audiobooks and reading practices, with a particular emphasis on temporal and spatial aspects of use and the information infrastructure wherein these practices are shaped, such as subscription services, streaming, platforms, apps, user interfaces, smartphones and headphones. The user group chosen for exploring these reading practices were young adults in Sweden aged 18–20.

In 2023 the thesis was awarded runner up in the prestigious iSchool doctoral dissertation award which recognizes outstanding work in the information science field.

Starting autumn 2023 I am research group leader for the research group Information practices and digital cultures together with Professor Jutta Haider.
