Personal Information
I was born on the 11th of March 1987, in the city of Ålesund, on the west coast of Norway. My father is an architect, so I have been interested in architecture from a young age. My mother is a librarian, but also works in the architectural business. I have a great interest in music, and I also play in bands besides practicing architecture. I like to work with photography as well, both digital and analog.
