Profession: Creative Director
Origin: Sweden with English descent
I see myself as a schooled businessman & entrepreneur but a naturally gifted creator. You could say that I´m autodidact in the true sense of the word. I create and manage projects with both heart and mind, with great passion. I love my trade and never shy away from a challenge or any obstacle. I always see the world as my playing field and I strive to meet new talented people to work with and learn from in the progress. 2004 I co-created the company V AVE SHOE REPAIR 2004 together with my partner Astrid Olsson, for a decade we delivered fashion and invention all around the globe and gained a world of experience along the way.
With my entire professional career within fashion design, production, conceptual innovation and retail I offer senior level knowledge covering a wide spectra of the fashion industry. I have managed several companies, start-ups, projects and enterprises. Thus my understanding for product, international market and innovative design combined with packaging, unique expression and communication are all well documented through my previous accomplishments. My extensive network stretches world wide combining all parts of both fashion and lifestyle. I provide design management, concept strategy and leadership to company management and teams alike.
I strongly believe in paying it forward and always give as much as I can to the next guy.
