I'm a Swedish digital creative based in Vancouver, Canada. I was the first one ever employed at Farfar, one of the world's most successful digital agencies (ranked #1 in The Gunn report 2007) and stayed there for almost a decade. Within the first year of my career I managed to win a Cannes Lions Grand Prix and since then I've received over 50 International advertising awards.

Basically I just love creating cool shit on the web and calling it "work".
