About Me

I am a passionate researcher, international ISO expert, visionary and public speaker with collective knowledge of IT, business and sustainability. I am currently pursuing my PhD in business analytics and circular economy with planned defence Oct. 2021 whilst working part-time as a researcher for SINTEF.

I research how companies can leverage data and insights from digital technologies (i.e., IoT, Big Data and AI) to enable more sustainable and circular business models. I am particularly committed to conveying the enormous synergistic opportunities in “digitalizing the circular economy”.

Interested in my research? Need a talk on the impact of future technologies or circular economy? Get in touch!
