About me

As an Ed-Tech Advisor at the University of Stavanger's UniPed and an academic at VID University and Noroff University, I specialize in AI applications for education and the strategic use of digital tools to enhance learning experiences. My expertise spans:

  • AI integration in educational processes and research
  • Development of digital and didactical aspects of university offerings
  • Creation of interactive, blended learning courses and ed-tech integrations
  • Establishment of learning analytics from Learning Management Systems (LMS)

My background in Biomedicine and experience as an assistant professor in biology bring a unique perspective to educational technology. This multidisciplinary approach combines:

  • AI application development and consultancy
  • Programming and statistical analysis (Python, R, PowerBI)
  • Advanced biomedical techniques: functional imaging, chromatography, and spectroscopy

This combination of skills enables me to bridge the gap between educational technology and biomedical research, fostering innovative approaches in both fields.
