About
I am an ecologist with a passion for nature and geography. My education focused on environmental changes in different ecosystems. I am fascinated by data science and I want to use my skills to contribute to the development of a sustainable society.
Research
Footprint and Impacts of Renewable Energy: Pressure on Lands Under Growth
Renewables are key to green energy production. We want to guide the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy while minimizing impacts on natural resources in Norway.
Transforming Citizen Science for Biodiversity
Citizen science has the power to transform biodiversity research. We develop tools for tackling issues related to citizen science data and for using the data to address ecological questions.

‘Generally ignored’ species face twice the extinction threat, warns study
Wildlife with little data faces double the risk of dying out – which may mean many more species are endangered than previously thought
Extinction Risk May Be Much Worse Than Current Estimates
A machine-learning algorithm predicts that more than half of the thousands of species whose conservation status has yet to be assessed are probably in danger of disappearing for good
Tusener av dyr og planter forsvinner før vi har hilst på dem
Ingen vet hvor mange arter som egentlig er truet av utryddelse, ikke engang blant artene vi har gitt navn. Norske datasimuleringer gir skremmende ny innsikt.
