Short presentation

I'm a PhD student here at the department. My research is mainly focused on electoral turnout and incorporates perspectives from both rational choice, decision theory and social epistemology. I have a master's degree in political science, and bachelor's degrees in both political science and practical philosophy respectively.

Besides academia, I have worked both as a data analyst for various government agencies, a self-employed humanitarian photographer and a local trade union chairperson.
