I work as a senior lecturer in Business Administration, specialization in entrepreneurship at the School of Business and Economics.

Teaching

I mainly teach on entrepreneurship and business development on both basic and advanced level.

Research

My research topics are entrepreneurship, business incubation, digitalization and aesthetics.

We are accredited

The School of Business and Economics at Linnaeus University is accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, AACSB. Only 6 percent of the world’s leading business schools achieve this accreditation, making us one of a few schools that are trailblasers in teaching, research, and societal impact.
