About
I am a writer, translator, and critic. In 2024, I was awarded a three-year grant from the Norwegian Non-Fiction Writers and Translators Association. I also work as a lecturer in philosophy and intellectual history at the Norwegian liberal arts college Kulturakademiet. In addition to my books, Frykt og avsky i demokratiet (2020) and Krystallpalasset (2024), I have written extensively for Norwegian magazines and newspapers on literature, culture, art, philosophy, and political and ideological currents. Since 2016, I have also worked as an editor at the independent publisher House of Foundation (H//O//F), where I’m co-editing a series of contemporary philosophy in translation.
