What did you study (at school, college or university)?
Vocational University

How did you get into technology?
I was so tired at my job as an accountant and when working as an accountant I always worked close to the IT department, and was often 'super user' in our systems. When I finally had enough accounting I decided on a new career and started my education 43 years old. It was only a 2 year education and I had a job immediately after finishing it.

What company do you work for?
Edge HR AB

What do you do at your current company?
Web Developer

What advice would you give to girls looking to get into a tech related career?
It's never to late to resaddle. And being a developer isn't that technical - don't be afraid. It's more logical thinking and problem solving.
