I have education, knowledge, and skills from several professional fields of business.
What I'm looking for
My name is Liza Grape, and I am a trained archivist currently working at The Archive of Popular Movements and The Business Archive in Skellefteå, Sweden. My extensive experience in both governmental and private sectors has equipped me with a versatile skill set, particularly in managing analog materials. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the Museum- and Cultural Heritage program at Stockholm University, where I majored in ethnology and minored in archival science. I have a passion for transcribing, translating and proofreading.
Throughout my career, I have engaged in various projects that highlight my dedication to archival work, including a significant article I wrote for the magazine Arkiv, which was presented at an event by ArkivIT. My commitment to the field is further demonstrated by my participation in the ICOM conference in Prague, where I documented the event and contributed to the evolving definition of museums. I am passionate about transcribing historical documents and am actively involved in volunteer work at the Stockholm City Archive, where I continue to enhance my skills in paleography.
