My areas of interest range from fundamental physics, such as the generation of non-classical quantum states of light, to biochemistry applications, for example in super-resolution microscopy.

For my Bachelor thesis, I worked on Mass Photometry, a microscopy technique capable of measuring the mass of single proteins. During the last two years, I have also been involved in a project about tracking of gold nanoparticles to investigate glycocalyx dynamics.

My Master's thesis was on the generation of entangled photon triplet states in tapered nanofibers, a versatile tool for nonlinear and quantum optics experiments.

As a doctoral student in the Ultrafast Nanoscience group led by Nicoló Maccaferri at Umeå University, my aim is to understand the interaction of magnetic materials with the orbital angular momentum of plasmons. We are developing an ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy setup to study these fundamental effects with high temporal resolution.
