I am a lawyer with a background in EU and public international law. I am specialized in environmental and marine law and governance, and matters of coherence and coordination for a better protection of the environment. I have an LLB and LLM in EU and International Law from the University of Groningen, and an LLM in Public International Law and PhD in Environmental Law from the University of Oslo. I have been employed at the Norwegian Institute for Water Research since 2015. I have experience with applying for, managing and leading different types of research projects; publishing books and peer-reviewed papers; teaching bachelor and master courses, supervising students; and organizing workshops and conferences. I have currently published over twenty book chapters and peer-reviewed articles, and also contributed to ten major scientific reports. My latest books include ‘The Environmental Rule of Law for Oceans – Designing Legal Solutions’ (ed. with A. Pozdnakova, forthcoming, Cambridge University Press 2023) and ‘Environmental Law and the Ecosystem Approach – Maintaining Ecological Integrity through Consistency in Law’ (Routledge 2016). I work on a variety of research projects predominantly related to environmental and marine law and governance in Europe and Norway. My key research interest is the legal analysis of laws and policies to identify gaps, overlaps and/or inconsistencies and to suggest the changes necessary to improve the effectiveness, harmonization and coherence of legal frameworks, at the international, EU, and national level alike for a better protection of the environment. I am the project coordinator of the Horizon Europe funded project ‘CrossGov' – Coherent and Cross-compliant Ocean Governance for Delivering the Green Deal for European Seas.
