About

I am a theoretical physicist working at the interface of quantum foundations, quantum gravity, and cosmology, with a particular interest in how spacetime and subsystem structure may emerge from quantum theory. My work combines tools from quantum information, quantum field theory, and philosophy of physics to study questions about locality, entanglement, reference frames, and the status of spacetime in fundamental physics. I am also interested in connecting these foundational questions to laboratory tests, cosmology, and possible observational signatures.

I am an Assistant Professor at NORDITA, where I lead the Quantum Foundations and Gravity group and am Principal Investigator of the Olle Engkvists Stiftelse-funded project Spacetime Emergence from Quantum Mechanics: From Theory to Observations (2024–2028). I co-founded and lead EmerGe, an international collaboration bringing together physicists and philosophers to investigate spacetime emergence.

My earlier work spans string cosmology, dark energy, and early-universe theory. I also co-founded ScientiFika, an outreach and community-building initiative offering accessible science events in Stockholm (https://scientifika.se/).
