I was born in 1980 in Boden, a military town in the far north. When I was six I moved with my parents to the University town of Umeå. There I did my first two years at the University studying history and music. 2002 I moved to Gothenburg on the Swedish west coast where I worked and studied for many years before I started as a Ph.D. candidate here in Lund.
