Bakgrund

I am associate professor in political science at the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Mid Sweden University and a part of Risk and Crisis Research Center. I also hold the position of research professor (full professor/forsker 1) at NTNU Samfunnsforsking AS in Trondheim. I have a bachelor's degree in political science and a master in public administration (MPA) from Missouri State University in Springfield, Missouri, and a PhD in political science from Mid Sweden University.

Forskningsområden

I am a public policy scholar. My research interests center on theories of the policy process. I have focused on the multiple streams framework (MSF) and specifically on the concept of policy entrepreneurship, but also on resilience and networked governance especially in emergency management collaborations. My substantive policy area interests include crisis management, especially at the local level as well as defense policy.

Forskning

I have published in journals such as Policy Studies Journal, European Policy Analysis, Journal of Contingencies and Emergency Management, Politics and Policy, European Policy Analysis, and Policy and Society and the author of numerous book chapters in international edited volumes. My book (together with Jörgen Sparf, Nikolaos Zahariadis and Thomas Birkland) titled "Policy Entrepreneurs, Crises, and Policy Change" with Cambridge University was published in January 2025. I am involved in a number of externally funded research projects, including projects funded by the Swedish Research Council (VR) and the European Commission.

Undervisning

I have taught at the undergraduate, graduate, and post graduate levels.

Övrigt

I am associate editor for the International Review of Public Policy (IRPP). I was elected in the College of the International Public Policy Association (IPPA) in 2025.
