Position: Postdoctoral Fellow since fall of 2022
Affiliation: Digital Innovation (DIN) group, section for Digitalisation
Research projects and/or fields of interest
My PhD dissertation was on the organizational uses of Big Data, a research interest that I continue to pursue in my current position. I have—in addition to doing empirical research—also been involved in teaching and supervision of Masters theses on the subject matter.
I am well acquainted with the needs and concerns of the temporary academic from personal experience during my PhD and Postdoc periods. In addition, I have years of hands-on experience with preparing documents—predominantly financial accounts—for board decisions, which have given me detailed insight into the workings of a board.
Aspirations and priorities for this role
My aspirations for the role, if I were to be elected, are:
- Engage actively with the temporary academic staff at IFI to ensure that their concerns and viewpoints are recorded, voiced and heard in the Board.
- Establish, develop and advocate for strong support structures for academic success of temporary employees, both within research and teaching. I believe this is crucial for early-career scholars building their research and teaching portfolios.
- Draw on my knowledge and experience within accounting and finance to contribute actively to sound decisions in line with the Department strategy for 2023-2026.
