Project managment, yoga, travel, books...

My varied interests stem from my need to learn new things. My keen interest in making a difference and being in a position to impact decisions corporations make is what has inspired me to pursue an MBA in the ever growing business hub of Texas.

I am a Mechanical Engineer who entered the big bad world of trucks and machines. A rare space for women, it has taught me many things both professional and personal. Not the least of which is my ability to hold my own as a minority and the importance of a strong network. Today this has positioned me as a leader and project manager at Volvo Trucks.

I am the youngest woman leader within the group. I initiated and lead an activity group to improve collaboration among the the global team. I test drive trucks and am responsible to identify and develop a career path for other women in the chassis team.

Yoga is a passion which has given me the one minded focus and strength to pursue my goals. Practising and teaching for over five years this is an important aspect of my life and I a believe solution to most problems.

Besides these, I am a nomad traveller, blogger and book worm. All of which are a way for me to be creative and immerse myself in various cultures.
