PhD candidate with the SEATIMES Project at UiB. My interdisciplinary research investigates human-whale relations (specifically whale watching and whaling) and cetacean cultural significance in different locales: São Miguel, Azores, and Andenes and Skjervøy, in Arctic Norway.
My MA research on Greenland sharks and basking sharks resulted in the artistic collaboration Cairban: A Contemporary Shark Hunt, which has been showcased in Amsterdam and Bergen.
