About

On the record

Through 29 years in testing, I have worked in a variety of roles from test analyst and test architect to test manager, program test manager and most recently quality coach. My experience has come primarily through working with mission-critical systems in the field of military command and control systems, electronic patient records, telecommunications and SAP solutions. I have worked with testing and quality assurance in the context of agile transformation, both as an active test manager and as responsible for defining and rolling out test pro-cess improvements. The basic competence in process and process improvement comes from many years as an active participant on the journey from CMMI1 to CMMI5, where I was strongly involved in designing and implementing the test part of the process, this in parallel with the organization going through an agile transformation. In recent years also a number of transformation assignments in some of Denmark’s largest companies, including one in the context of a SAFe® transformation, but also in a public organization where I established process and method in a test and support team alongside a role as test manager on the electronic patient records. Giving value to my team or project is essential, helping to create change and improvement is one of the things that drives me, and my heavy testing skills ensure that I can do both. Communication and teaching are close to my heart and I enjoy doing workshops and tailored training within agile and test.
