About me

Currently I live in the city of Lulea located in the north of Sweden (i.e. north of Europe). I was born and raised in the village Alvsbyn located a couple of miles from here. It may seem as I live very far up the big globe, but we nor have polar bears or penguins running across the streets here ;-). Actually it is often around +30C here at summertime. Well enough about the location... When Im not working I enjoy watching a good movie or going to a theatre or a sports event with my friends. Im a typically social person who loves to both discuss personal issues as well as get more profound in political discussions.

My work

After I took my masters in Computer and systems science at Lulea university of technology I started to work as a system architect at the Swedish-Finnish telecom operator TeliaSonera. In the fall of 2007 I went to WM-Data (now knowned as Logica) to work as a consultant.
