Har jobbet med sikkerhet i et tiår, og vært innom både infosec, personellsikkerhet, krisehåndtering og beredskap, sikkerhetskultur og virksomhetsstyring.

En ting som jeg har vært opptatt av hele veien er forenkling av prosesser, gjøre faget så "enkelt som mulig", slik at sikkerhet kan bygges i hele virksomheten. Jeg har jobbet med frivillige, helsepersonell, renholdere, byråkrater og sikkerhetsvakter og trives med å finne måter å redusere siloer og skape engasjement og samarbeid på tvers av fagområder.

Jeg liker å holde kurs, øvelser og foredrag og elsker å skape dialog, fagdiskusjoner og behovsbasert fokus på sikkerhet👏🏻
