Hey there 👋
I love building websites. Professionally, I am a digital product designer with a focus on UX and a head full of technical insights. I have been building websites for 15 years. And for the past nine years, I have been developing digital products that promote mental health among young people.

Work
Do you need a guy with experience in thinking, building, and marketing digital products? Then you have come to the right place. I have been building things for the internet since they dug 52K through the driveway in West Jutland. And since I completed a master's degree in anthropology, it has been my job.

Personal
Are you looking for a person who is great to work with? This is what the rest of my life looks like.
Suburban Dad and Family Life
I am married to Maja, who works at SSP Odense, and together we have three daughters. Solvej Viola, 12 years old. Rita Viola, 10 years old. And Elva (who has yet to feel like using the middle name Viola) is 6 years old.
We live in the suburb of Hjallese in Odense, where we have just renovated a house from 1974. So I can also add general contractor, floor installer, ceiling fitter, drywall sander, and wannabe carpenter to my skills.
80s Rock and Forest Runs
I spend my free time swinging the bright red Fender to 80s rock and running in the local forests. Running is becoming more and more significant. So the plan is to upgrade from a half marathon to a marathon soon (I'm almost 40, so it's about time).
