As a blue collar daughter, Pernille defeated the odds by being a first-generation college and PhD graduate. She moved across the world to pursue neuroscience at the best research universities in the world, and left little undone in her pursuit of knowledge. Because of her determination, she can now call herself an award-winning scientist. Through this scientific journey she could also, finally, start her own trauma healing process.

As she mastered the skills of a researcher, she realized that communication and self-insight were cornerstones of not only her professional success but also her personal wellbeing. Pernille realized that her drive for research was rooted in people’s mental health. She now focuses her energy on helping people thrive.
