I completed my PhD degree at ex)situ, under the supervision of Michel Beaudouin-Lafon. The title of my dissertation is Designing and Programming Malleable Software. My PhD research was part of the five-year ERC Advanced Grant project, ONE: Unified Principles of Interaction. My principal research interest is developing infrastructure to build interactive systems that can be pulled apart and put together by users. I make prototypes and conceptual models to study this kind of software.

Background

I have an MSc in Computer Science from Aarhus University. During my master's studies, I specialized in Human-Computer Interaction, Programming Languages, and Digital Design. My master's thesis project was about hypermedia, software, and the phenomenon of transclusion in interactive software. I was supervised by Susanne Bødker and Clemens Nylandsted Klokmose.
