Project Researcher
University of Leeds
I am a Research Fellow within the Sustainability Research Institute at the School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds. My research focuses on the environmental impacts embodied in consumption, and the supply chain and consumption changes needed to achieve sustainable lifestyles and economy.
I defended my PhD in the Industrial Ecology Programme at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway. My PhD focus was on the environmental impacts of household consumption,
from demand patterns to mitigation strategies. I also contributed to EU FP7 project GLAMURS 2014-2016, a large interdisciplinary project concerned with the global transition towards sustainable lifestyles and a green economy. I have a MSc in Economics with a strong focus on environmental economics and econometrics from the University of Gothenburg. Prior to that I received a BSc in Business Administration from Aarhus BSS.
