̽»¨¾«Ñ¡

I am an assistant professor at the Division of Speech and Language Pathology, Department of Clinical Science, Intervention and Technology at the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ (KI) since September 2021. Before that I was a postdoctoral researcher at the same division. I earned my Ph.D. in Communicative Sciences and Disorders from New York University (2016).

July 2025-January 2027 I am a Visiting Fellow at Southern Cross University, Faculty of Health, Australia, where I lead the research project INCLUDE, funded by the Swedish Research Council.

I received my Swedish professional degree in Speech-Language Pathology from ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in 2007, and am a licensed speech-language pathologist (Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare). In my clinical work I have mainly worked with school-aged children, adolescents and adults with developmental language disorder and developmental reading disability / dyslexia.

For more information about me and my research, please visit my portfolio page (link to the left).

My research interests are mainly in the area of language, reading and writing development and language disorders in children and adolescents. I have a particular interest in how different contexts affects language use, as well as language learning and processing from an emergenist and dynamical systems perspective. My main aim is to inform clincial and classroom practice. I collaborate with many researchers across Sweden, in the US and in Australia and you can find a description of all ongoing projects in my portfolio.

At ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ am teaching and developing the SLP-program course on language, reading, and writing difficulties in school-age children. I am a recurrent guest lecturer in the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ Psychology program, the Stockholm University Special Education Teacher program and for an advanced level course at Uppsala University.  In addition, I am currently supervising several theses projects and I am co-supervising a doctoral student in speech-language pathology.

At NYU I served as an adjunct instructor for the master level courses Language Disorders in Children (2012) och Language Development and Disorders in School-Age Children (2013-2015). 

In 2015 I started a research blog (in Swedish) with the aim to make language research accessible for clinicians, teachers and parents.
