"Vitality of the municipality is a basis for the citizens wellbeing and the services."
I’ll be 54 years this year and I have a family of two children and a husband. I am a trained nurse, socialworker and data protection officer. During my workhistory I have worked within the nonprofit sector, public sector and business. My workduties have included nursing, quality - and development management, director for services for persons with dissabilities, digitalizationprocesses and changemanagement of the ICT, within the wellbeing services county.
In my freetime you will find me in my garden, as our nature is important to me and we must take care of our environment. But the most important for me is my family and our pidro- and gamenights are something I look forward to.
