Biography
" I am post doctoral researcher at the Department of Business and Politics where I am part of the research project “Rewards at the Topâ€. In the project, we explore politicians’ remunerations and the costs of a political career. My research focuses on politicians’ remunerations, career paths, and costs of being in politics as well political behavior with a focus on voter turnout. I am especially interested in how social networks shape our action as citizens. Before joining the Department of Business and Politics, I did my PhD at Department of Polical Science, University of Copenhagen. "
