- I feel truly honored to have been chosen to participate in Momentum! This opportunity comes at a great point in my career, as I have several important pieces of the career puzzle in front of me. I look forward to learning how to put these puzzle pieces together in a way that will enhance my production of new knowledge that the world and my field need, Silje says.
