Born in Lofoten, Norway under the Northern Lights, I’ve been immersed in technology since childhood tinkering with computers, networks, and systems long before it became my career. I’ve been using Linux and open source technologies since 1995, and that early curiosity laid the foundation for a lifelong passion in IT, programming, and cybersecurity.

Today, I work as a Lead Security Architect, backed by over a decade of experience across a wide range of roles, including:

  • Incident Manager & Major Incident Process Owner
  • Department Manager
  • Event Manager & Process Owner
  • Problem Manager & Process Owner
  • Senior System Consultant
  • ITSM System Manager
  • Operations Technician

My core focus is on designing secure, resilient systems and leading enterprise-wide efforts in cyber defense, major incident response, and IT service management. I take pride in combining deep technical insight with a strategic mindset to build solutions that are both robust and adaptable.

Outside of work, I’m a homelabber, educated programmer, and competitive Capture the Flag (CTF) player. I’ve spent extensive time in Hack The Box labs, where I’ve earned a Top 100 global ranking badge a reflection of my dedication to hands-on learning and real-world offensive security skills.

When it comes to development, I’m fluent in several programming languages, including, but not limited to:

C, C++, C#, Swift, Go, Rust, Python, PHP, and Perl.

Whether I’m leading architecture decisions in the enterprise or experimenting with self-hosted infrastructure at home, I’m always looking for ways to build smarter, more secure systems.

In short: I’m a passionate, hard-working IT and security expert from Northern Norway, committed to innovation, continuous learning, and making technology work better for everyone.
