Background and experience
I have extensive experience in research administration and organizational management across the higher education sector (University of Oslo, BI Norwegian Business School), as well as in the non-profit sector and industry.
I have previously worked as a managing director, research adviser, and project manager, with particular responsibility for the development and implementation of externally funded research projects, including EU-funded projects (Horizon Europe, EEA Grants etc).
I hold a master’s degree from the University of Stavanger, where my thesis focused on motivation among golf players.
In my free time, I am a football referee at the senior level for the Norwegian Football Federation (NFF) in Oslo.
