About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just a step further.

ABOUT ME

Easy going, easy living, open minded, nothing special. I really like hosting people. Talking about myself can be a little difficult (on CS), though...

I work, and I work a lot. I'm not too fond of working, but one has to make a living. I studied engineering for 5 years, and ended up having a masters degree. The company I worked for has offices all over the world. I have spend 5 years in the copenhagen office, a half a year in the Hamburg office and 1 year in the Montreal office. Lately, I have been back in Copenhagen, but looking to move to Stavanger soon for a new job opportunity.

In my spare time I mostly play music and do crazy scientific stuff. I used to teach guitar and play in a band, but not so much anymore. I do have a laboratory and music studio to do fun things in. When I have vacations, I travel. I usually go places far away where the sun shines more than in Denmark, but I've been in every kind of places. In the weekends, I hang out with my friends, mostly going out.

PHILOSOPHY

You live on a rock in space, just roll with it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have developed objects that were sent into space.

Teach, Learn, Share

Due to my job, I happen to be an expert in phenomenons that occur in modern electronics , but Im not too keen on spending my time talking about that outside my job. Anything else would be fine. I teach guitar, and could give you some lessons as well, Im willing to share my language skills with anyone, and Im ALWAYS keen on learning something new...

What I Can Share with Hosts

My company and a dinner.
