CV
I am a Fulbright Alumni holding a M.Sc. in Nanotechnology from NTNU in Norway. In addition to state-of-the-art nanotech, I closely follow the realm of AI through Udemy online courses.
I have co-founded two startups, reStatus AS and AnyTimeBed AS, leveraging my experience in technology and business development. I am currently the CEO of reStatus AS where we develop a medical device for early detection of sepsis.
My prior work experience have been devoted to CrayoNano and Accenture, showcasing my versatility in both the tech and consultancy industry.
In addition to Python and C++ coding, I gladly share my insights on tech topics, entrepreneurship and innovation through public talks.
Leading a team of top-tier experts on a mission to develop and commercialize a MedTech biosensor for early detection of sepsis.
Interned as a strategy consultant at Accenture developing a new business model for a recruitment NGO.
Interned as a nanofabrication engineer at CrayoNano's R&D team. Planned, designed and developed a optimized photolithography process for their UVC LED design.
At AnyTimeBed we built, deployed and operated self-serviced sleeping stations for budget commuters and travellers. Our sleep stations facilitated drop-in accommodation and were located at airports and gas stations in Norway.
Specialized in Nanoelectronics and graduated in 2023 from NTNU with my master's thesis "Nanofabrication of a Junctionless SiNW BioFET for Early Detection of Sepsis".
Attended UCSD, USA, during the academic year 2021/2022 as a Fulbright Scholar. I was enrolled in courses within the Nanoengineering and Electrical Engineering Department.
During my 2nd year of high school I exchanged a year to Kawana Waters State College, Queensland, in Australia.
