• I'm working as a "Development and Research Engineer" at the department of "Advanced materials & Binders" at RISE Stockholm. My focus area is within batteries, where I work on prototyping and slurry mixing. Currently I'm involved in two Horizon projects related to batteries, GIGABAT (Machinery for battery production) and PULSELiON (Solid state batteries). I'm also responsible for an investment in new battery infrastructure including a dry room and roll-to-roll coater.

• In 2007 I got my M.Sc. degree Chemical Engineering from Uppsala University where I did my master thesis within the Battery group.

• My first position at DeLaval in Stockholm where I worked with environmental testing, issues related to corrosion, and polymer materials. My next position was as a process engineer at Boliden Zinc Smelter in Norway. Here I had the opportunity to be closely involved in the daily process, with improving the process and the expansion of the smelter. My last year I managed the group of process engineers. I moved to Trondheim in 2014 and worked as a senior Engineer at NTNU within the Electrochemistry group and SINTEF Battery Group. I was a part of the team setting up and working with the new pilot battery lab of SINTEF.

• My expertise is within battery prototyping focusing on battery slurry mixing.
