My experience extends to working at major law firms and as partner at a specialised boutique practice. I have 15+ years of experience leading legal departments and corporate functions in Sweden-based organizations with international operations and global client relationships.

I excel at implementing regulations that are practical and create sustainable value. International experience from cross-boarder transactions and working in Paris and London has strengthened my cross-cultural communication skills and understanding of diverse legal systems.
