About Me
Doctoral student in theoretical and computational astrophysics at the
Laboratory for Galaxy Evolution and Spectral Modelling (GALSPEC),
Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland.
My research involve modelling and running numerical simulations of massive black hole
gas accretion in idealised low-mass dwarf galaxies, and studying how this is regulated
by AGN and stellar feedback processes. Overall, I'm interested in all things related to
galaxy formation and evolution (particularly by using numerical simulations), especially
at high redshift.
Originally from Älmhult, Sweden. Prior to my PhD I did my BSc and MSc at
Lund University. In my free
time, I like reading, being outdoors
(collection of photos from some
of my hikes), and especially running (list of
races I have participated in).
