Om mig

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Environmental Medicine at Karolinska Institutet, with an affiliation to the Stockholm University Demography Unit, Department of Sociology. My research interests include immigrant socioeconomic integration, social determinants of health, socioeconomic inequalities, and advanced quantitative methods. I hold a PhD in Sociological Demography from Stockholm University, where my doctoral thesis examined how overqualification affects various life outcomes among children of immigrants born in Sweden.

In my current research, I study the intersection of nonstandard employment, in-work poverty, and health outcomes using Swedish register data. I also work on improving the quality of occupational data in Swedish administrative registers.

For more details about my academic background and research, please see my CV.
