Om mig

I received a B.Sc and M.Sc in Life Science from University of Konstanz, Germany in 2016 and 2019, respectively. During my studies I completed an internship with Akra Polyster in Monterrey, Mexico.
Currently, I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Materials and Environmental Chemistry at Stockholm University under the guidance of Prof. Lennart Bergström. Outside of my research I was an active member of the PhD council as well as student representative for PhD admission and am currently student representative at the departmental board.

Forskning

My research aims to employ colloidal processing of biobased nanomaterials for thermal insulation. I focus on the development and processing of nanocellulosic composite materials, the determination of their thermal conductivity under varying relative humidity, as well as the investigation of fundamental aspects of heat transfer.
