Earned an MSc in Software Engineering from MDU and completed several internships at ABB, where I prototyped software solutions for secure industrial operations and device onboarding. Currently a PhD student at MDU, conducting research in close collaboration with ABB.

Researching as part of the FLEXATION project, which focuses on making current automation systems more flexible. My work explores how to establish secure trust between system components and how to balance flexibility with security.
