Personal profile
Research profile
I carry an MSc in Engineering from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) specializing in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). I am now working as an industrial Ph.D. student at MT Højgaard Projektudvikling A/S and Aalborg University (AAU) where I investigate the environmental impacts of the construction processes and work to develop a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method for the execution phase and better resource management in the construction process that can improve the construction industry's opportunities to reduce the climate impacts.
