Summary

In my world anything is possible and my goal is always to create an awesome user experience. With 20 years of experience in software engineering I’ve acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to manage and execute most types of software projects.

My specialities are:

  • Full-stack software development, primary in Java and JS
  • UX and UI engineering
  • Lean and Agile (Scrum, XP)
  • Collaboration and communication
  • Lead engineers and build strong teams

My career in software development started with me creating web pages and building small applications for the local businesses while studying. From there I moved into consultancy, implementing software solutions as well as advising clients on how to increase business value through software improvements. I've since then consulted at small companies as well as large Fortune 500 companies and everything in between.

My experience ranges from people- and project-management to pure programming. Through the years I’ve found that I’m happiest when I can also feed my creative side. I excel in a position where I can both design and develop, from inception to execution.

When I'm not at work I spend my time together with my Dutch wife and three little kids, if not, I'm probably out enjoying some long-distance running. I was born and raised in Sweden and I now live with my family in Naarden, The Netherlands. My Dutch skills are sufficient and I'm fluent in English and Swedish.
