I work as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Jyväskylä (JSBE) in Academy of Finland's funded interdisciplinary and multi-year research project: Biodiversity Respectful Leadership (BIODIFUL). My research focuses on biodiversity-respectful flourishing life and Gen Z as future consumers and leaders.
I am also involved in Kone Foundation's funded three-year interdisciplinary and -artistic research project: Elonkirjon äänettömät (ELÄÄ).
