Coming from academia, it is amazing to experience a business-driven and fast-paced world where I see my impact almost daily.

The leap from academia to consulting at McKinsey was like entering a new world. Upon completing my master’s degree in quantum physics, where I worked intensively on a research paper, I was eager to delve into the realm of consulting.

Prioritize spending time with colleagues

I enjoy fun activities with my colleagues, and I take part in organizing our Copenhagen office soccer team. The office organizes many opportunities to spend time with colleagues, and everyone is genuinely interested in spending time together. When on a project, I prioritize to spend time with colleagues in a different setting, because it boosts my energy and makes the teamwork even more enjoyable. Between us, I prefer a Sunday soccer practice.
