Biografi
Jag disputerade i engelsk lingvistik vid Uppsala universitet i december 2013. Mina huvudsakliga forskningsintressen är engelska för akademiska ändamål, tillämpad korpuslingvistik och andraspråksskrivning. Min nuvarande forskning fokuserar på retorisk struktur och utvärderande resurser inom olika disciplinära genrer samt elevers engagemang i extramural engelska och dess inverkan på L2-skrivutveckling.
Under åren har jag undervisat i kurser på både grund- och forskarnivå, inklusive skrivande för akademiska och professionella syften, andraspråksinlärning och undervisning samt korpuslingvistik. Jag har arbetat på Karlstads universitet sedan 2020.
