About me

I have a long career in the Swedish School System, as teacher, special needs teacher, headmaster, special needs advisor and analyst. My main focus have always been improving a more inclusive, equitable school with high quality for all students, especially those vulnarable for exclusion.

At the moment I work with policymaking nationally in Sweden with issues concerning equity, inclusion and high quality education. I am also Representative Board Member representing Sweden at European Agency for Special Needs and Inclusive Education
