Who am I?

I am a Swedish technologist and entrepreneur who loves to work with smart, kind people,
to make the world a bit better.

 

What do I do right now?

Right now my main focus is on postgraduate research in
Captology
(Persuasive Technologies) at the
Royal College of Art
in London, department of Service Design.

 

What did I do before that?

I co-founded a company called
Sqore,  the leading tool for skills-based, unbiased recruitment, and
Studentcompetitions.com, 
the world’s largest community for students who play in academic competitions.

Prior to that, I graduated with an MSc. degree from the 
Stockholm School of Economics
 and attended the 10-week Global Solutions Program at 
Singularity University
in Silicon Valley in 2011.

I have also enjoyed being part of the 
Atlantic Council’s Millenium Fellowship
,
Sandbox Network,
Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship and the 
St. Gallen Symposium Community
.

 


What do I like to discuss? 

Sometimes, I go on stage to speak about issues that are dear to me.
