About

I am a PhD candidate in architectural history at the Department of Architecture and Technology, Faculty of Architecture and Design. My educational background is from architecture and my doctoral dissertation deals with the architectural theory of Bernardo Vittone. My research interests revolve around international architectural history and theory in the early modern period.

I teach Norwegian and international architectural history in the course AAR4430 (History of Architecture and Architectural Theory A), and I am also involved in studio teaching.
