I have been at SLU since 1993, after a degree in biology at Lund University and consequent employments there. Especially interested in biodiversity and its impact on people. I have also been involved in education administration at several positions since 2008.
Teaches at the landscape architect programme, and several master's programmes at the Alnarp campus.
Have been involved in several research projects, particularly with an urban focus, regarding urban biodiversity, environmental psychology, recreation and the connection between humans and the green environment.
Have been involved in several projects in cooperation with other departments within SLU and other universities, nationally and internationally.
Supervises and examines several bachelor's and master's projects in several programmes annually.
