Academic interests

I am passionate about the regulation of digital technology that directly impacts people. Currently, I am a Doctoral Research fellow on the Digital Welfare State project. My research focuses on the regulation of personalized technology in schools and within the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (Nav).

I also contribute to research on the online publication of court decisions in various European jurisdiction, with the CLEANUP-project.

Courses taught

Background: 

Master of Laws from the University of Oslo (2022), and a Bachelor's in Arabic from the University of Bergen (2020). Previously, I have been a research assistant at the Norwegian Research Center for Computers and Law (NRCCL) and employed as a research assistant and researcher at CELL (Center for Experiential Legal Learning) from 2022 to 2024.

I was working in for the Norwegian Ministry of Education in the secretariat for NOU 2023: 19 "Learning: Lost in the Shuffle? — Use of pupil and student data to enhance learning". This is the Norwegian green paper on learning and technology that discusses pedagogical, legal, and ethical challenges in context. I have served as a national expert to reports for the Council of Europe and European Labour Authority. I co-organised Oslo Legal Hackathon in 2024 and contributed as a mentor to Council of Europe's hackathon in 2023 and 2024.
