I have been the Chairwoman of IKF Malmö since 2015. I hold two law degrees – one from the Czech Republic and the other from Lund University. I run my own law firm and was politically active in several roles between 1996 and 2010, the most important being my position as municipal commissioner in Malmö.

I became involved with IKF Malmö because I see that women are often underestimated and hindered both in the labor market and in political life. For me, IKF Malmö represents an opportunity to make a real impact on individuals’ lives. A cause I am particularly passionate about is gender equality. My strongest memory from my time at IKF is when the association was named the best non-profit organization in Malmö in 2019 and all the tears of joy from women who gained employment through our support. My main interests are societal development and politics.

A motto that inspires me is: “Per aspera ad astra!”
