Business Analysis

Summary

I am an ambitious and driven entrepreneur with a passion for creating new products and services that adds value
by simplifying the interchange between technology, people and work. Before starting my own company to develop
my own projects while also working with external customers I spent my time solving problems for both large and
small corporations as well as being involved in a couple of startups.

My experience ranges across fields such as Product Management, Business Development and Project
management making me an versatile asset to my clients and colleagues. I am an enthusiast of all things
innovative and creative and I am inspired by people who regularly tackle large problems and persevere despite
having the odds stacked against them.
