Personal profile

Biography

My first educations were in music. Yet, theology has increasingly absorbed my interest. Besides working as a musician and teacher in music, I have therefore increasingly been studying and teaching theology. To me, modern Orthodox theology has emerged as the most exiting field. At present I am working om my doctoral dissertation which investigates the trinitarian theology and its governing role in Dumitru Staniloae.

Research interests

My area of expertise is modern Orthodox theology, and I am particularly interested in the philosophical coherence of Christian doctrine.

Teaching

I regularly teach Orthodox theology at the Newman Institute, Uppsala, Sweden, and has also been invited to teach at Åbo Akademi University, Turku, Finland.
