I have an MSc in International Relations (2020) from Aalborg University (AAU), where I specialise in Arctic studies. I also did my undergraduate at Aalborg University in English and International Studies. Since September 2023, I have worked at the Center for Arctic Security at the Royal Danish Defence College.
My research interests include para-diplomacy, Arctic international politics, and foreign security and defence policy in the Arctic.
I have published on Denmark’s security perspectives on great power rivalry in the Arctic, Danish political discourse and foreign policy identities before and after Donald Trump’s Greenland purchase proposal, and social media opinion in relation to the US’ interests in Greenland.
