Personal Profile:
I’m a hardworking and committed person who has very good management and communication skills.
I’ve studied Computing, (with some Management, Marketing & Economy-modules), at University-level.
In 2001 I received an award, ‘Rimi Goldmines’, in shop-management in Norway. An award that only a handfull of Rimi’s 500 shop-managers receive every year.
At school, I was always one of the best in my class, and in 1988, I was allowed to study in the county of Buskerud, Norway, although I lived in the neighbouring county of Vestfold. This was because I was one of the ten best students that year.
