A

Designer at heart …with a special love for everything that has to do with “eye and hand” - seeing and shaping.

After studying for example art history and architecture, the majority of my career has been focused on graphic design.

I have over the years managed to gather a lot of experience and both depth and breadth as a designer. Naturally I have designed for both print and screen - think “the Adobe package”, with Indesign , Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. and I’m also not afraid of moving images and graphics or photo and photo editing ( adjusting, retouching and montage making.).

From my architectural studies I have the ability to think in all dimensions and I have also, among other ‘bonus abilities’, done a fair bit of video editing (Mostly in Premiere).

In addition to a very strong foundation in graphic design in general, for example as the Creative Design Manager of Ericsson Multimedia, I have also done layout for the newspaper/magazine Sportfack and for that I refer to the editor in chief Martin Willners.

Outside of the job A normal week there is a lot of motion, so to speak.

It’s fun on wheels! Four of those on the skateboard that I’m letting roll once or a twice a week together with the other “old man skaters”, at Fryshuset indoor skatepark or outdoor concrete pools and bowls.

Board sports in general are very close to my heart. Snowboarding and surfing from time to time is necessary to stay happy and feel good.

Every now and then you find me on a bike of some kind, sometimes in the woods on my trail mtb, sometimes downhill on a bike with a bit more suspension travel.

Recently I got myself a cyclocross/racing bicycle as well and will do a couple of recreational races this year, just for fun and exercise.

Another activity that would leave a big dark hole if it was taken out of the activity list is rock/sports climbing!

An additional dimension that make these sports even more fun is how photogenic and cinematic they are.

Should it be that I am at one moment not exercising

the sport in question, I am probably shooting stills of or filming the action, or maybe you find me in front of my computer editing the video material.

Nowadays I am also a happy partner, father and homeowner - spending quality time with my girlfriend and little soon-to-be two-year-old Max, in and out of home.
