Since I studied Sustainable Development, I have been wanting to work for a company that stands for sustainability in everything they do. Thankfully, that dream came true a year ago. I am currently fighting food waste at IKEA Uppsala by working in Bistro and Swedish Food Market. I focused on making sure that no expired food goes to waste. I aspire to help IKEA become more sustainable, starting from the IKEA retail store I work in. Therefore, I am a part of this IWitness 2019 trip, to bring inspiration back to IKEA Uppsala. I love to play board games and binge on Friends in my spare time.
