Welcome to my personal site! I am a PhD graduate from the University of Copenhagen's TALENT Doctoral Fellowship Programme, which is co-funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme. My research focuses on the wildlife trade, consumer behaviour, economic valuation, and social marketing. I aim to advance and combine theories and methods from neoclassical and behavioural economics, social psychology, consumer research, theoretical modelling and simulations, and data science to create a transdisciplinary foundation for studying consumer behaviour with environmental and public health implications. My research on the trade and consumption of high-value, endangered wildlife products have been featured in the award-wining TV documentary "Rhino Dollars" (ARTE France), the podcast series "Kevin Pietersen: Beast of Man" (BBC Radio 5), and various interviews with BBC Natural History, BBC Wildlife Magazine, and the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR): https://boutique.arte.tv/detail/rhino_dollars https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07bt3bq https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/2WKNW3K4fb2TTcZr8m26s4m/why-are-rhinos-being-killed https://www.dr.dk/viden/webfeature/tigerknogler
