I’m a creative leader with digital roots tracing back to the days when only nerds used the internet. After many years at Farfar, widely considered one of the top digital agencies of all time, I’ve hit a more media agnostic groove. But somehow I always end up in the digital realm. Because it still is the most exciting place to be. Even without the nerds.
I guess my ”success” comes from being able to flip fast between creative and analytical thinking and always being able to come up with presentable, kick-ass ideas. That, and enjoying to work with people much smarter than myself.

Director of Brand at Northvolt Stockholm, Sweden 2019- |
Responsible and committed to make Northvolt the world's most charismatic (battery) brand. Build the in-house agency from scratch (where I also play active part as creative). Developed the brand strategy and cracked Northvolt’s visionary tagline “Make oil history” - simple to understand, easy to get behind. |
|
Creative Director at MediaMonks Stockholm, Sweden 2016 - 2017 |
As Creative Director I was responsible for developing concepts to fit the requirements of MediaMonks clients, and help other creatives do so as well.
Greatest achievement was our work with Audi. "Enter the Sandbox" was a tremendous success, both in Cannes – where it won one Gold – and at the Audi dealerships. |
|
Creative Director at BBH Stockholm, Sweden 2014 - 2016 |
When I joined it was called Monterosa. When I left it was called BBH Stockholm. In my role as creative director I worked hard to transform this best-in-class mobile app studio, into an agency worthy of joining the ranks of Bartle, Bogle and Sir Hegarty. Mission accomplished. |
|
Creative Director at North Kingdom Stockholm, Sweden 2012 - 2013 |
The top-ranked Web Production Studio was fed up with flip-flopping agencies. So they recruited me to win over some real, persistent clients. I did. Leading a ragtag team of creatives I brought onboard Netflix, Carlsberg and Malibu. I was also ”instrumental” in getting Lego, League of Legends, Vodafone and MSN into our roster of direct clients. |
|
Creative Director at Publicis Singapore 2011 - 2012 |
Despite the culture clash of moving from Europe to Asia I advanced from Associate Creative Director to Creative Director in just 39 days. Guess I didn't blow it completely. |
|
Sr Copywriter at Farfar Stockholm, Sweden 2006 - 2010 | The Gunn report ranked the now-defunct agency as #1/2007, #3/2008, #5/2009, and #4/2010. Not bad for a crew of 40. During my stay I won 39% of Farfar's awards, delivered worn-out underwear to president Bush, established 19,000 flagship stores and brought home global pitches for Coke and Swatch. |
|
Copywriter at Lowe Brindfors Stockholm, Sweden 2002 - 2006 |
Sweden's largest and most successful agency was the boot camp of my copywriting career. Responsibilities included developing digital campaigns for Stella Artois, SAAB, 3 (telecom) and collecting 2 Gold in Cannes. |
