Progressive, strategic, and conceptually strong. Extensive experience in building companies, cultures and creating world-class solutions.
Educated in communication, masters initiative, focused on building brand experiences that matter.
Practises the gentle art of saying "yes". Daring, reaching, pushing for the great opportunities available outside the notion of the obvious.
I have 20+ years of experience in creative agencies. I co-founded two successful ones and am currently co-CEO/Executive Creative Director at www.boldscandinavia.com.
Alongside those endeavors, I've worked as a journalist, started a record company, written 10+ books, owned a music venue, worked as a tour manager, created the most popular app in Denmark, and ran a festival with 300.000 attendees, among many other things since I entered the school of life in 1974.
