Integration Coordinator at Strängnäs Municipality and Project Manager for Voluntary Refugee Support, a collaboration with UNHCR Nordic and Baltic Countries.

Areas of expertise: With over a decade of experience in migration and integration, I collaborate with organisations, authorities, and governments across Sweden.

In my role as Integration Coordinator and Project Manager for Refugee Support, in collaboration with UNHCR Nordic & Baltic Countries, I work closely with municipalities, civil society, and international organizations to strengthen support structures and improve integration processes.

I previously served as a coordinator for a national integration project, leading communication efforts to highlight successful integration stories across Sweden. In this role, I traveled nationwide to share best practices and expand the integration concept. I have also collaborated with over 120 municipalities in Sweden, including startups and organisations to drive these initiatives forward.

With a diverse background as an Integration Coordinator, TV Producer, and Journalist, I’ve developed a unique combination of leadership, communication, and strategic development skills. I leverage storytelling and visual creativity to highlight important social issues.

Passion in life: I am passionate about sharing experiences and learning from one another. I am deeply committed to making a positive impact in the lives of those seeking new opportunities, while building strong networks. Outside of my professional endeavors, I find great joy in nature, photography, and traveling. These passions allow me to explore the world, capture its beauty, and strengthen my connection to the environments I encounter.
