Biografia

I work as a researcher in accounting at Turku School of Economics, Department of Accounting and Finance. I hold a PhD in Accounting from Copenhagen Business School (2024) and an MSc in Management Accounting from Turku School of Economics (2018). Before returning to Turku, I worked as a researcher at Tampere University, Faculty of Management and Business (2022-23), and was a visiting researcher at the Center for the Sociology of Innovation (CSI), Mines ParisTech (2021).

Opetus

At Turku School of Economics, I teach the bachelor’s course “Sustainability Reporting” (LR23) and the master’s-level course “The Role of Theory in Management Accounting” (LRS2). 

Tutkimus

My research explores the role of accounting in the governance of ecological transition. Drawing on science and technology studies, I examine how accounting practices mediate the relationship between climate policy, financial markets, and corporate governance. I am particularly interested in how accounting standards, sustainability disclosure frameworks, and financial governance arrangements contribute to organizing markets in the Anthropocene.

I specialize in qualitative methodologies, including ethnographic fieldwork, and aim to produce empirically grounded and conceptually rich understandings of how accounting and management technologies participate in organizing social and economic life.
