I'm a Service Designer and Creative Coach with an artistic, graphic and systemic background. With my playful, visual and cocreative approach I support in team, leadership, change and innovation topics, inspire new products and business models and promote personal development. I'm also known as a passionate networker, interviewer, art curator, mentor and sportsman.
As a new work innovator and explorer on an expedition through the world of work you will find me at changing locations – which 2024 was the city of Oslo. Get inspired on my blog.

‘The guy with the yellow sticky notes.’
With my clients you will find me in playful designed environments – for reasons. I deeply believe in creativity as our most valuable resource from childhood on.
That is why I am characterized by a particularly creative and interactive approach to tasks, projects and processes.
play seriously!
To bring this into reality, my coachings and workshops embrace visualizing, building and interacting – in both a co-creative, playful, humorous but likewise serious way.

This is what my clients say:
‘We were able to develop our business from different perspectives, e.g. from the customer’s one. – I’ve got a better understanding of our organisation because I was able to experience it holisticly, tangibly and in motion. – As a team and as employees we all participated equally and individually. We've never done that before.’
