Michaela Holmström
Vice President of YP
Business Sweden
Michaela moved to Chicago in early 2023 to work for Business Sweden, where she currently spends her time supporting Swedish companies in their US expansions. Prior to relocating, she studied Industrial Engineering at Linköping´s University, where she was the chair of the board for the program’s student association. She really enjoyed working with the board back then, just like she enjoys her current engagement in SACC. Michaela is passionate about meeting new people and hopes to continue engaging new and existing members in the group of YPs, to let more people take part of the vibrant community.
Michaela’s favorite activities include exploring new cities and being active. Floorball was the sport that brought her abroad the first time, when she played with a team in Switzerland during one season. After that, she has worked as a tour guide and resort manager within both hiking and skiing in France, Italy, and Austria, where she got the chance to combine her interests in languages, people, and outdoor sports.
