Hi there,

Thanks for stopping by.

I am an engineer, entrepreneur, and advisor based in Silicon Valley, helping founders grow and navigate the U.S. market. With over two decades in tech, I’ve worked at the crossroads of technology, business, and people—launching products, building partnerships, and guiding teams from idea to scale. Originally from Norway, I bring a Nordic sense of trust, clarity, and craftsmanship to everything I do—values that blend naturally with the pace and ambition of the Bay Area. I’ve helped startups expand across borders, supported Nordic innovation in the U.S., and built long-term relationships with founders, companies, and investors who share the same curiosity and drive. I believe good business is built on good relationships. My work is about connecting people, ideas, and opportunities—and helping others grow by doing the same. Outside of work, I recharge through my friends, family, music, and sports. Thank you!
