About
I am a PhD Candidate at the Deparment for Interdisciplinary Studies of Culture at NTNU. I studied social anthropology and sociology at Heidelberg University, Germany (Bachelor of Arts) and Anthropology of Development at the University in Bergen, Norway ( Master of Philosophy).
My academic interests include (but are not limited to):

Current Project:
Becoming Part of Society. Migrant Integration through Everyday Interactions in Rural Norway. [working title]

Previous Projects:
As part of my master studies, I conducted qualitative research on the notion of Gender Based Violence in Vanuatu. I delivered my master thesis “Wanem ia jenda? What is Gender? Translations and (Mis)Understandings between Development Discourse & Everyday Life Experience in Port Vila, Vanuatu” in June 2016.
My fieldwork was partially connected to and funded by the European Consortium for Pacific Studies (ECOPAS) – an EU funded multidisciplinary project. The final ECOPAS report was published in 2016.
I was a member of the Bergen Pacific Studies Group (BPS) at the Department of Social Anthropology at the University in Bergen.
Further Engagement:
Apirl 2019 - April 2020: elected president of DION, the interest organization for temporarily employed scientific staff (PhD, post.docs.+) at NTNU.
