How do we make society work? And how do our perception of the social world affect our actions? These are question that early in my life invoked a curiosity for the social sciences in the broad sense. Upon finishing an M.A in archival science in the spring of 2018 I was accepted as a PhD-candidate at Malmö University and since then I have devoted my time to develop a strong understanding of social issues and policy analysis, skills that are useful both in academia as well as in the public and private sector. My doctoral thesis focused on conceptions of immigrants within Swedish state and municipal policy during the time-period 1970–2000, and these conceptions consequences for the integration politics. During my time as PhD-student I also wrote two articles, the first dealing with the rise of Swedish Welcome culture within refugee-aid organizations and the second dealt with notions of privacy in Swedish archive legislation. After finishing my PHD I have worked as an associated post-doc at Malmö Univeristy with four fully founded projects, three about swedish sexual education during early 20th century and one about massdigization of cultural heritage. Apart from research I also have a large interest in teaching and communicating history to a broader audencie. During my time as a teacher I have taught of number of courses ranging in history, archival studies, supervising student thesis etcetera. Apart from this I have also worked with the departments historical blog and open seminar. By this I have developed skills in communicating science as well as adapting to different groups ranging from first term students to professors and an interested public.
