I graduated as a pediatric nurse in 2001, and I have primarily worked in neonatal care since 2004. Most of my work experience is from Norway. My focus is in interprofessional collaboration in pain management of neonates. I completed my master’s degree studies in 2020 at University of Oulu and wrote my master’s thesis on interprofessional collaboration on neonates pain management .

Currently, I am doctoral researcher at university of Oulu. I will continue my research on interprofessional collaboration on pain management.
