I'm a developer, application architect, chapter lead for web development at Maersk Tankers, dad and music enthusiast.

about me

I am a software engineer who has always thrived on engaging complex problems and designing and developing intuitive solutions.

My interest is to find the most optimal solution while being aware of the value it should be able to create.

I have primarily developed web-based applications and service-oriented integrations, but also some data manipulation routines and similar solution-oriented client applications.

I started my career as a consultant focusing on open source software. A subsequent decade as a systems consultant gave me extensive experience in building business-critical enterprise applications and services on Microsoft's middleware and .NET framework in agile projects.

For the past five years, I have been working as an application architect and full-stack developer with technologies such as Amazon AWS, GitHub, Redis, MongoDB, Docker, Node.js, JavaScript, React, Angular, Bootstrap and a lot of other great Open Source tools.

As a full-stack developer, I've have an understanding of all parts of the application while keeping the big picture in mind.

I have typically worked as Lead Developer in project groups of four to five consultants and as a solution designer in relation to the customer. A consistently professional behaviour and sense of responsibility has been a requirement to fulfil these roles. I also have experience in facilitating workshops, organising technician and user training, conducting demos and giving presentations.
