I am an associate professor in the Department of Education and Diversity at the University of Iceland's School of Education. I completed my PhD in sociology from the University of Iceland in 2018 and have worked at the School of Education since 2019. My research spans from gender identities of young people to disasters and their impact on disabled people. In recent years, my theoretical perspective has mainly been affect, discourse, microaggression and ableism. In my research, I use feminist critical disability theory to understand the reality and experiences of disabled people, using qualitative research methods.
