I am a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the University of Gothenburg, where I am part of the INTRAPARTY ERC research project.​ My research explores how internal party dynamics such as leadership contests, coalition decisions, and factionalism influence political trust, legitimacy, and representation.

​

I am among the first scholars to systematically connect intra-party divisions with public opinion, bridging the study of party organization and mass political attitudes. As part of my PhD thesis (defended 2024), I examined how party members respond to divisive decisions, using original surveys, experiments, and interviews. This work laid the groundwork for my current interest in how such divisions become visible externally, particularly through the media.

​

In my current postdoctoral work, I focus on intra-party politics, party members, intra-party democracy, and political communication.

​

My academic profile combines robust empirical skills with an interdisciplinary approach.  I have published my work in leading journals (Electoral Studies, Party Politics, Journal of Elections, Public Opinion and Parties, Frontiers in Political Science), designed and implemented multiple survey experiments, and collaborated with international teams. Simultaneously, I gained applied research experience at Ipsos, managing high-stakes public opinion projects and strengthening my skills in survey implementation, data collection, and communicating results to non-academic audiences, including policymakers.
