I am Associate professor (docent) and senior lecturer at the Department of culture and media studies, Umea university, Sweden. My research interests concern narrativity, life stories, mobility among highly skilled and intersectionality. My PhD thesis was an analysis of how Polish well-educated professionals told their life stories after the fall of communism. I have also written on family stories about aunts. An important theme has been international mobility of professionals, e.g. Polish doctors working in Sweden and Swedish doctors going on assignments in the global South, with aid organisations like the Red Cross or Doctors without Borders. I have also written on "internationalisation" of the Swedish humanities as ideal and practice. One of my recent projects focused on how teachers, storytellers and pedagogues in adult education and museums work with telling and sharing of life stories as a creative, inclusive and emancipatory practice. In 2024 I start a new project, about teachers' use of generative AI.
