Hi Community Friends! We thought it might be nice to know who’s who, while we’re actively engaging in our community. I’ll start! My name is Anita, and I’m your Community Director. I joined Cognite in September 2020, and jumped right on the mission of establishing Cognite’s customer community. I’ve worked in a variety of industries, and am passionate about working at the crossroads of sustainable business development and digital transformation. I live in Lommedalen, Norway (translated “the Pocket Valley”), where we have long winters with deep snow. I love horseback riding (Islandic horses in particular), and I have a passion for Italian wine and food.
Here’s a fun fact: my grandfather’s brother, who was raised in the remote mountains of Hallingdal in Norway, worked as a chemist with Thomas Alva Edison. The letters he wrote home made me realize from early on that no matter your background, you can change the world. I’m super excited to facilitate for all of you to meet, discuss and learn from each other, driving the next industrial revolution together!
Let me know if you have any questions, concerns or just would like to say hi. Looking forward to meeting you all!
-Anita
