During my career as researcher, consultant, and project manager, I have obtained skills and experience in interacting, communicating and collaborating in a range of national and international environments, including universities, manufacturing industry, small- and middle-sized companies, start-ups, stakeholder organisations and consultancies. My educational background is within science (physics and cell- & molecular biology) and I have been working as a scientist in the academic environment for several years. Before joining the Innovation Support office at DTU Diplom (today DTU Engineering Technology), I have worked as a senior consultant in a private GTS organisation for 7 years. There I have worked with development of R&D activities with tasks within strategic planning of R&D activities, funding, project management and coordination of R&D projects, as well as knowledge transfer to Danish industry.
