About me

Born in 1986 and based in Sandviken, Sweden. I work as a vocational IT teacher focusing on networking, device coordination and support, energy technology and hands‑on IT operations. I am driven, efficient and quick to learn — I thrive when I can take initiative, create structure and solve real problems. At heart I am a tech nerd. I prefer to automate repetitive tasks and build tools/scripts rather than accept inefficient workflows. On the side I run Fjälltryck, combining graphic production, web development and e‑commerce. In my spare time I do photography, programming and mountain hiking, spend time with my partner, and consume more sci‑fi than is probably healthy.
