Professional info
Business Process Management, Project Management, Change Management, Consultation - all in a good days work. The Icelandic market is a rather small one. Icelanders are only 320.000 and around 100.000 live in the capital region. This usually means that job requirements are very versatile and you get insight into various niches. My love of learning and tackling new things has also lead me to even more versatility.
Since 1994 I have taught various computer courses alongside other jobs - this has held me up to date in changes occurring as in Microsoft Office through the years. I am an avid PC user but I am also fully capable on a Mac. I love having versatile projects and a hectic day, working within a group or on my own.
