I am currently employed as a PhD fellow at VID Specialized University, but I have worked as a researcher at the Center for Intercultural Communication since 2013. I hold Master's degree in International Economics (2010) and Social Sciences (2013) with a clear focus on work and family migration. My PhD project examines the link between family reunification and labor market integration of Polish migrants in Norway, Sweden and the UK. I have previously been involved in a number of international research projects with funding from, among other, Norway's Research Council and Norway Grants. I speak Polish, Spanish, Ukrainian and Russian.
