About Me

I'm a person that always been very goal oriented that have had a hard time taking it easy and relax. But after two years at a start-up I realized I needed a break from being productive. So I ended my responsibilities and will now travel for a while and focus on reading books and meeting new people.

I'm a person that have hard time sitting still (if I'm not reading a book), I like to try out new activities and explore new things! But also enjoy deeper discussions and hearing people's interesting stories :)

My parents are kind enough to let me stay in their small cabin behind their house, it's pretty amazing!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a big fan of reading books, before I focused almost 100% on books that could improve my capabilities at the start-up I worked at, so subjects as leadership, productivity and how to build companies was really the focus.

But now I'm more interested in reading books that helps me understand both the world, people and myself, one good example is "Sapiens: A brief history of humankind" which eloquently covers all three subjects, it's a great read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently tried downhill biking and messed up my ankle, but downhill biking was a incredible experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to share my experiences of being a part of start-up, I was apart of one for two years and also read a lot on the subjects. I'm especially interested in discussing leadership both of team but also being a leader of oneself.
