I am an Associate Professor and Vice Dean of Education at the Faculty of Behavioural and Movement Sciences. My research examines how students learn and develop across different educational contexts, with a particular interest in the role of executive functions—skills such as working memory, cognitive flexibility, and self-regulation—in supporting learning and motivation.

In recent years, together with my colleagues, I have explored how the match between students and their study programs relates to academic success, what helps students persist in their first year of higher education, and how teacher–student interactions can strengthen learning processes in primary school. I also work on interdisciplinary projects that connect cognitive, motivational, and social perspectives on education.

In my role as Vice Dean of Education for my faculty, my focus is on fostering an educational culture that inspires both students and teachers. I believe in education that is evidence-informed, engaging, and inclusive, and that supports students in discovering and developing their talents. Strengthening the quality of teaching and creating space for innovation are central to this vision.
