What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a values-driven organization that prioritizes compliance and ethical practices.

I am an experienced professional specializing in Data Protection and AI Governance, with a strong track record of embedding Privacy by Design and Ethical AI into organizational strategy and operations. My expertise lies in aligning frameworks such as the AI ACT, GDPR, ISO 27001, and NIST efficiently into business operations. I am passionate about contributing to a values-driven organization by strengthening internal compliance capabilities and fostering a culture of trust.

In my current role as Principal Consultant at ART25 Consulting AB, I design practical frameworks for Privacy by Design and Ethical AI, supporting compliance across various sectors. I conduct ongoing research on AI governance and regulatory developments, ensuring alignment with the EU AI Act and emerging global AI laws. My previous experience includes serving as Corporate HR Data Protection Lead and Compliance Officer at Vattenfall, where I supervised over 50 HR-IT projects from inception to go-live from a compliance perspective.

With a Master’s degree in Business Administration and extensive certifications in privacy and data protection, I have trained over 5,000 employees in data governance and compliance. I am committed to leading thought leadership initiatives that promote responsible, risk-aware innovation in digital environments.
