About Me
Health Science and International Business and Management graduate, now exploring the pharmaceutical industry. Extensive international experience from an upbringing as a “third culture kid” and studies and work in the US, Sweden, the Middle East, and Hong Kong. Completed internships and work in research, sales, and business development, often with a focus on healthcare and life science.
When not working, happily exploring new cities and countries, stretching out on a yoga mat, and experimenting with various kitchen projects - some more ambitious than others.
