Curriculum Vitae

Here is an up-to-date, abridged version of my curriculum vitae. A more extensive version in English can be found here.

Education

Master of Science –- Applied and Computational Mathematics (2023–2026)

I studied the track in computational mathematics at KTH, with a strong focus on numerical methods for partial differential equations and scientific computing. My Master's thesis can be found under the Projects tab.

Master of Science in Engineering –- Materials Design (2020–2025)

I completed the Civilingenjörsprogram in materials design at KTH in 2025. The programme consists of two parts.

Master of Science –- Engineering Mechanics (2023–2025)

For the final two years of the programme I specialized in engineering mechanics, having followed the track in solid mechanics. My Master's thesis can be found under the Projects tab.

Bachelor of Science –- Technology (2020–2023)

The first three years of the programme consisted of general courses in mathematics & engineering, and more specialized courses in materials science. My Bachelor's thesis can be found under the Projects tab.

Experience

Course materials developer – KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Summer 2025)

Developed teaching materials (Jupyter notebooks and slide decks) for a course on machine-learning methods given to faculty in the Engineering Mechanics department during the academic year 2025/2026. For details, check the Projects tab.

R&D intern – Mondi Dynäs (Summer 2024)

Worked in quality control: analysed statistical variability in paper properties and modelled relationships to infer customer-critical, hard-to-measure properties from routine lab measurements.

Teaching assistant – KTH Royal Institute of Technology (2021–2023)

For the Department of Mathematics I've taught in the courses

  • SF1632 Complementary Course in Differential Equations and Transforms – Spring 2023

  • SF1633 Differential Equations I – Autumn 2022

  • SF1624 Algebra and geometry – Autumn 2021

  • SF1625 Calculus in one variable – Autumn 2021

Notes from when I taught SF1632 and SF16333 can be found under the tab Mathematics resources

Vice President – THS Bergssektionen (2021/2022)

During my second year at KTH I was the vice president of the student chapter for the programmes in material science. Except general leadership duties the role also meant that I was responsible for accounting and budgeting.

Board member – THS Bergssektionen (2020/2021)

In my first year as a student at KTH I was elected to represent first year students on the board of the chapter.
