I am a professor of economics at the Norwegian Business School (BI) where I teach econometrics and causal inference.

As a researcher, I am interested in how electoral institutions shape political outcomes, and how political representation impacts public policies. I currently study questions such as: Does local representation matter under closed-list PR? How do parties motivate candidates to exert effort during campaigns? Do bureaucrats benefit from being politically aligned with the political leadership?
