See my staff page and contact info at my current employer, Stockholm university.

My research interests lie in the intersection between modern intellectual history, philosophy of history, and history of knowledge. From 2023 to 2025, I worked on the postdoctoral project “All is One: Holistic Knowledge Ideals and Controversies from Fin de siècle to the Anthropocene,” investigating the relationship between knowledge, ideology, and spirituality.

My thesis, Two Quests for Unity (2021), is a study of John Dewey's and R. G. Collingwood's thought in relation to philosophical idealism and political liberalism. Previously, I have studied various cultural sciences and have written bachelor's dissertations in philosophy and comparative literature covering issues on identity, narration, trauma, memory, and the relationship between historiography and fiction.

In the Research Portal you can search and find information about all active researchers, units, publications, projects, infrastructures, and more, to get an overview of Lund University research.
