Biography

I work as a senior lecturer in the Department of Education at the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥, in the Education and Adult Education. I teach in basic, subject and advanced studies and supervise bachelor’s and master’s theses. I also supervise doctoral theses. I have the title of docent from the University of Oulu, Faculty of Education. The area of my docentship is family research in the field of education.

Research interests

My research focuses on parenthood and family. I am currently researching co-parenting in the transition to parenthood with the data from the CopaGloba-Learning to coparent research project. Together with my colleague J. Terävä, I am also studying (co)parenting after separation from the perspectives of mothers, fathers and children.
