Field of work
My educational background is within nutrition and public health sciences, and I hold a PhD-degree in food-related consumer behavior from 2020. I have a special interest in dietary choices and food-related consumer behavior at the population level, and think it is exciting to explore how the environment around us affects our food choices.
At HVL, i am involved in the National Centre for Food, Health and Physical Activity (https://mhfa.no/), where I work with the school subject food and health, and food and meals in school. I am currently working on the LOTAS project, which is a research project on food and health in lower secondary school.
My research interests is public health nutrition, nudging and choice architecture, food-related choices, health- and nutrition literacy and the school subject food and health.
