I’m a philosopher and professor at Oslo Metropolitan University who works on thorny issues in practical ethics.
I lead “What should not be bought and sold?”, a $1 million project funded by the Norwegian Research Council, and I’m a member of the Young Academy of Norway.
Outside of academia, I’m a queer parent and an aspiring novelist.
