In most cases, people, even wicked people, are far more naive and simple-hearted than one generally assumes. And so are we. — Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Welcome to my website!

I’m a PhD Student in the Developmental Psychology Lab working with Audun Dahl. I am supported in part by the NSF GRFP.

My research interests involve moral development and social cognition, with a focus on how children and adults understand moral disagreement. I am especially interested in trying to figure out when we see each other as reasonable, even while we may disagree.

A small biography

I was born in Stockholm, Sweden, and I lived in England as a child before moving to the United States. I received my B.A. in Psychology from UC Santa Cruz.

Outside of research, I enjoy working out, playing video games, listening to music, and taking photos (that I at least think look nice).
