Core competence

The ability to envision future-proof systems that go beyond linear development from the current modus operandi.

Whether you're a passionate photographer, an ambitious filmmaker, or a solo entrepreneur in the creative field, the demands on modern media and production systems are constantly rising. From hobbyists and prosumers to agencies and companies in the media, photography, advertising, and film industries – everyone shares the need for powerful, efficient, and flexible solutions that enable them to bring their creative and business visions to life.

From individuals and small entrepreneurs to large agencies, anyone involved in producing, processing, or managing media content needs systems that not only meet current demands but also anticipate future developments and innovations.

Destination

I will help guide your media vision to the destination you envision. Together, we can make it happen.

My focus has always been on thinking outside of current systems rather than following traditional approaches. In my development work, I have strived to consistently find more agile and lightweight solutions than what at the time existed on the market. My core specialty is system architecture, combined with an understanding of how to make the best use of various system components (such as CPUs and GPUs) to generate unprecedented speed, efficiency, and completely new features within the field of media handling.I have throughout the years bravely sought innovative solutions to reach new levels of efficiency with media handling, for example by bringing MAM to smaller entities and making MAM systems available to new types of customer groups.Through cutting-edge pilot projects and a relentless, iterative approach to testing, I have introduced numerous groundbreaking innovations and patents to the market.

Is it achievable? Yes, it is possible.
