“I´m here to make a difference and won´t settle for anything less! I love knowing that my work is helping save lives. It is such a gift that fills me with gratitude and joy.
And that´s not all. I get to work with the most amazing people and cutting-edge technology - always learning something new and having tons of fun!”

"When I was a child I was always restless. I always needed to feel like I was creating something or solving a problem and I think that’s what led me to study Mechanical Engineering. I started with Laerdal when I was still a student, uncertain, not knowing much about the company. That quickly changed. From company culture to colleagues, I felt engaged and challenged to make a difference. Every day there is a new assignment and thanks to cross-department teams and in-house maker spaces, my drive has sparked into action!"

"After seven years of working with Laerdal in India, there’s one thing that I hold most dear and that is the people I work with – all driven by our mission of helping save lives. Also, my work takes me across the world for field research and product testing and this has helped me develop close empathy with the end-users of our products and build strong relationships outside the organization as well."
