Welcome!

Welcome to my homepage! I am an Associate Research Fellow at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs’ Asia Program. I recently earned my Ph.D. in International Relations from Stockholm University (December 2024).

My research focuses on global governance and international institutions, particularly in the areas of security and development. I specialize in translating academic expertise into policy-relevant insights, offering rigorous analysis of international affairs in the Asia region.

For the past 12 years I have been working on, and leading, policy research on development, peace, conflict, and humanitarianism. Before PhD, I worked as a policy researcher at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) and as a field practitioner with a local development NGO in Cambodia.
