I'm a researcher in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science. After receiving my PhD (Linköping University, Sweden, June 2007) I spent one year as a postdoc at École Polytechnique, Paris. I returned to Sweden and worked as an assistant professor at the Theoretical Computer Science Laboratory, Linköping University (2008-2013).

2013-2016 I took a break from academia to compete professionally in online poker.

My current research interests include discrete mathematics, algorithms, complexity theory, and artificial intelligence.
