Career
She then spent a constructive period working for the Information Technology department of Nykr, but she began looking for a position where her work reflected her own creativity. This led her to join Fourkant in Copenhagen where she had the opportunity to concentrate on the Queue-it Internet application which she co-founded in 2010. The system is designed to resolve end-user overload in order to prevent website failure.
That probably explains why I"ve kept working in the business for almost 15 years.".
