Personal profile

Profile

I am a physicist at the Danish National Space Institute working on the scientific and instrumental data analysis software for a number of satellite-based astronomical instruments. Currently this includes JEM-X on the INTEGRAL satellite, which was launched in 2002, and HFI on the Planck satellite that was launched in May 2009.

Since January 2014 I have been the communications office for DTU Space and the web editor for the website ESA-astronaut.dk.

As well as writing and maintaining software I hold lectures/activities on astronomy and cosmology for school children in the Greater Copenhagen area.

Other information

Delivered conference papers and posters in USA, Japan and Europe. Contributed to INTEGRAL mission planning and development meetings in Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Finland, Germany and Sweden

Contributed to Planck mission planning and development meetings in Italy, France and Holland

Studied at university level in England, USA and France

Primary and secondary education in the UK



Language Skills:
