Västerås, Västmanland County, Sweden
My interest in computer science and technology has been present since we got our first PC at home. I was always interested in "how does it work ?" and "what can it be used for ?". Later through my education, a growing environmental concern and fascination for electricity led to studies within renewable and efficient power transfer. Therefore I would like to work with technologies that are game changers for a sustainable future, for example installing large solar power plants. Taking the electrical vehicle to the next level. Replacing fossil fuel as a mean to produce electricity,and the technologies we yet have to discover to reach a sustainable future. In addition to working with the technologies for a better world, I've been trying to inspire others to do the same. This range from volunteering in an organization known as "Mattecentrum" (see further down) helping students in secondary school with mathematics, to holding inspiration lectures with President ABB AB Sweden, Johan Söderström, in front of 200 students in Uppsala. This effort was noticed by HR at ABB which was interested in promoting my story at ABB in their global marketing campaign You @ ABB. (OBS!
