Personal history
I was born in Stockholm in 1988, and have been alive ever since.

Academic history
I graduated from Lund University in 2013 with a Master's in biology, and in 2020 I obtained a PhD in evolutionary ecology at Stockholm University's Department of Zoology. My published research mainly deals with how insects adapt their life cycles to local climate, but lately I’ve sidled into researching the biology of invasive plants.

I’ve been lucky enough to work as a teacher at nearly every age level, and I like to participate in science communication both professionally and for fun.

Drawing history
I like to write and draw things. Sometimes I do both simultaneously, and comics happen.
