Summary

Hi, my name is Einar Helgi Sigurdsson and I am 34 years old. I just moved to Kagsåkollegiet from Iceland with my girlfriend and 4year old daughter. My interest are all kind of sports, video games and computers, hunting, people and family. I have a blue belt in brazilian jiu jitsu and am in good physical shape and mentally strong. I don’t drink or smoke. I hate being late, i can fix things,i worked before as a chef so i am good in the kitchen, i like being busy, i am tidy and i have a lot of patience. My Danish could be better and i plan to learn it but my english is good. I didn’t finish my bachelor degree in psychology (finished 2 years) but plan to do it.

For the last 8 years I have been working for the local government in my hometown of Akureyri as a shifts manager(specialist) in a security facility for young adults with disability and violent behavior (autism, brain damage, severe mental illnesses, intellectual disability). It was both mentally and physically difficult but i liked it a lot and I will miss them dearly. We work after the method of gentle teaching and empowerment to help them with their daily life in their own special made secure apartments. Things like domestic duties, help patients with self-care and hygiene and provide companionship. Give medication, buy groceries, clean, make food, contact doctors, finding jobs, handle finances and more. I was also responsible for setting up the day with the residents, like who works with who 1:1 or 2:1, handling out chores to the other staff members, buying office supplies, cleaning supplies, groceries for staff, contacting technicians, picking up medications, presentations at staff meetings and many more.
