Areas of expertise
Biography
I work as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the project Förfalskarna (forgers) where my study concerns forgeries as material culture.
Currently I am on a leave of abcense from the University of Lapland, where I work as an Information Specialist, mainly with data management and open science. In recent years I have worked as a researcher in different research projects as well as an expert in archives, museums and libraries.
I defended my dissertation in the department of Finnish history in 2019.
Teaching
My teaching in the University of Lapland has to do with research data management and scientific publishing. I also teach the use of archival sources in Cultural History studies.
Form 2014 to 2018 I worked as a University Teacher in the Master's Degree Pathway in Records and Archives Management and was in charge of the development, coordination and teaching of the programme. In addition, I have taught medieval history and archival science.
I have completed pedagogical studies for subject teachers as well as basic level studies in university pedagogy.
Research
My research interests include relationships between archives, museums, and historical research, archival science, and the continuum of research data. Archival science has a significant role also in my research concerning the history of everyday life, gender history, and family history.
My doctoral dissertation combined history and archival science. The focus was on the publication of medieval sources and especially in the publication of the Black Book of Abo Cathedral.
