I build robust and maintainable software. I care about architecture that can evolve, teams that can sustain a pace, and code that the next person can actually read.
// what_i_focus_on
- > architecture
Add complexity only when you need it. Modular monoliths, event-driven systems, DDD — whatever fits. The goal is systems that evolve with the business instead of fighting it.
- > engineering_culture
Teams that own their work, learn from failures, and prioritize long-term health over quick fixes. Transparency and experimentation over process theater.
- > leadership
Servant leadership. Unblock people, don't dictate solutions. The developers in the trenches usually know best — help them get there faster.
- > delivery
Small increments, continuous forecasting, direct communication with stakeholders. No big-bang releases. Ship early, get feedback, adjust.
// speaking
Here I shared advice for graduates touching on AI, automated testing, legacy code, and the importance of understanding practical implementations of theory and concepts.
A two-part talk: first on how technical skills can help shed light on real-world societal problems — using surtoget.no as a case study — then on driving correctness through the type system.
On writing testable systems and what testability actually means in practice. Demonstrated different approaches to automated testing, including contract and approval testing.

Beyond the screen, I craft immersive worlds and intricate narratives as a Dungeon Master. It's where my love for storytelling, problem-solving, and collaborative creativity truly shines, bringing epic adventures to life for my friends.
My pursuit of perfect sound extends to a passion for high-fidelity audio gear. I love exploring the nuances of sound through quality headphones, DACs, and amplifiers, always seeking new ways to experience music in its purest form.
I'm a dedicated retro gaming enthusiast, preserving and enjoying the classics that shaped the industry. There's a unique charm in revisiting pixelated worlds and mastering timeless mechanics, a true homage to gaming's golden age.
My greatest joy comes from my three wonderful children. They bring immense happiness and purpose to my life, and I cherish every moment with them. Guiding them and watching them grow is the most fulfilling adventure of all.
