What kind of work will you do?

I will work as a communications officer one day per week, mostly Wednesdays, at the department management together with Selma Wolofsky.

At NVS I will mainly focus on working with the intra web. Our present intra web is out of date. A central solution at KI is being developed and I will work with how it shall be implemented at NVS. I will also be a support in the general communications work and a sounding board.

What do you look forward to working here?

I look forward to developing the internal communication at NVS. On a personal level I look forward to new challenges and personal development.

What’s your previous experience from work life and academia?

I work as a coordinator at the Aging Research Center since four years back. I do both communication tasks like being responsible for our website, our internal newsletter, and managing the production of our biennial report, and I coordinate different events like our board meetings, staff day, and open house. I have a background in organizing the scientific programs for medical congresses, and a bachelor degree in media and communications science.

How do you spend your spare time?

I compete in Olympic weightlifting, also yoga is a new passion of mine. When not exercising I love singing, painting and most of all spending time with friends.
