I am a geologist with a background in applied geophysics, specialising in the integrated interpretation and 3D geological modelling of geophysical and geological data. For the past 16 years, I have worked on geological mapping and modelling of the Danish subsurface, with a particular focus on complex geological settings.

My research combines Quaternary and glacial geology with applied geophysics and 3D geological modelling. I have developed expertise in the integration and interpretation of diverse geological and geophysical datasets, as well as in approaches for assessing and communicating geological model uncertainties.
