ENERGY / REFININGEducation
DTU · TUMB.Sc. Operations & Mechanical Engineering
A solid scientific foundation (mathematics, physics, chemistry) combined with mechanical engineering and supply chain management.
DTU · 2006 - 2009M.Sc. Industrial Management
Study line 'Management and analysis of operations' — operations and supply chain management with quantitative methods such as statistics and mathematical optimisation. Included a year at Technische Universität München (TUM).
DTU · 2009 - 2011BEYOND THE WORKDiscipline, resilience and the long game.
Raised on a farm, I learned hard work, resilience, and adaptability early — and they still shape how I work today. As founder of Worm Operation & Strategy Consulting, I use those principles to help businesses navigate complex operational challenges and design efficient, resilient supply chains.
Running taught me the same lesson from a different angle: discipline, consistency, and patient, strategic planning beat short bursts of effort. I push my own limits in training and on race day, and I bring the same commitment to my clients — staying with the work until they reach their operational and strategic goals.
My career spans a wide range of industries, blending hands-on operational experience with strategic leadership. I started at site level, learning the detail of local operations before scaling my impact to global initiatives — so I can move comfortably between the shop floor and the boardroom. With expertise in supply chain management, digitalization, and project management, I integrate local insight with a global perspective to deliver end-to-end solutions that drive growth and efficiency.
