I am a senior researcher at the Norwegian Institute for Urban and Regional Research, Oslo Metropolitan University. I am the Principal investigator on the Norwegian Research Council funded project "Regulating Migration and Integration through Monetary Requirements (REMIMO, 2021-2025), and I regularly undertake commissioned research for Norwegian public sector institutions. I hold a PhD in Political Science (comparative/public policy) from the University of Toronto (2014) and an MSc in Forced Migration from the University of Oxford. My doctoral work investigated the introduction of more restrictive family immigration policies in Denmark, Norway and the UK 1997-2012. I employ qualitative methods such as interviews and documnt analysis, and I work at the intersection of law and political science. I have significant non-academic experience in the immigration field, having previously worked for the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration, Norwegian Police Immigration Service and the secretariat of the Intergovernmental Consultations on Migration, Asylum and Refugees (a consultative process uniting 17 states, whose secretariat is hosted by IOM in Geneva).
