About me
Associate Professor
Section for Child and Youth Studies
Prior to joining the department, I worked as a lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Stockholm University, where I also completed my PhD. I have also held postdoctoral and visiting positions at Anglia Ruskin University, Birkbeck (University of London), Goldsmiths (University of London), Kyoto University, Örebro University and the University of Borås.

Youth, generation, housing, adulthood, social figures, identity, inequality, class, place, lifestyles, moralisation.
I primarily teach and supervise within the master's and doctoral programmes in Child and Youth Studies. Areas of teaching include childhood studies, youth studies, research methodology and the philosophy of social research.
My research focuses on the transition to adulthood and youth culture, with particular attention to social inequalities, generational dynamics, housing, spatiality, tastes, lifestyles, as well as processes of moralisation and radicalisation. I lead the Swedish Research Council-funded project Parental co-residence among young adults: Social conditions, experiences and aspirations, which examines how young adults living with their parents experience and negotiate their housing situation. I also work as a researcher on the Horizon Europe project YOU-DARE.
