About

I am a PhD student in the industrial ecology group and part of NTNU's interdisciplinary sustainability initiative and the circular city project. Our research aims at better understanding the material composition of the urban built environment and increasing circularity in this sector. 

Daniel Müller is my supervisor and I am a teaching assistant in his courses TEP4285 Material Flow Analysis and TEP4290 Modelling of the Built Environment.

I greatly enjoy collaborating with scholars of all disciplines, so don't hesitate to get in touch.
