Futurologist, strategy & creative advisor.
Introduction
I have dedicated my career to blending creativity with analytical skills, cultivating successful businesses and distinguished brands.
For over two decades, I’ve been at the intersection of technology, society, and human behaviour. As a strategist, futurist, and speaker, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with some of the world’s most forward-thinking organizations, including Volkswagen, Fujifilm, MasterCard, Siemens, The World Bank, and IFC.
My career spans a wide range of roles – from Head of Development and Technology at Edgecom (now part of Ericsson Business Consultants), to Program Manager at Microsoft, Chief Knowledge Officer at Cellcom, and In-house Futurologist at Volvo Cars.
These roles have been more than titles; they’ve given me a unique perspective on how technology and business strategy evolve together. This experience has allowed me to guide organizations through significant changes, helping them not only adapt but take an active role in shaping the future.
What sets me apart? My blend of unconventional curiosity and drive for meaningful impact. I’ve built a career on challenging norms and creating solutions that resonate. I’m selective about the partnerships I pursue, working only with those who bring energy, vision, and integrity to the table. This approach turns every engagement into a passion-driven collaboration, where we don’t just meet goals—we create lasting value.
By focusing on partnerships that inspire me, I’m able to fully commit my expertise, delivering insights that spark action and strategies that drive real results. I look for relationships that foster mutual respect, where creativity and purpose come together to solve complex problems. This work is more than just meeting goals; it’s about fostering real change and shared growth.
I chose a different path early on—a perspective that combines a microscopic focus on detail with a broad view of the bigger picture. Always questioning, always learning, I co-founded RETHINK to apply this approach as Creative Director, helping brands connect meaningfully with global audiences. This dual perspective allows me to adapt to diverse challenges and see opportunities where others see obstacles, turning insight into strategic action.
What excites me most is working with those unafraid to think differently, redefine success, and push the boundaries of possibility. Together, we build strategies that are innovative and resilient under real-world challenges. Ready to explore what the future holds? Let’s dive into these possibilities together—because navigating the future is a journey best taken with others.

Session, Sprints & Deep dives
I’ve been at this a long time and have honed my craft with dedication and experience. The best part? I truly love what I do.
Over the years, I’ve come to believe that life is too short to settle for anything less than inspiring. I’m selective about the partnerships I pursue – I work only with people who energize me and brands that make me say, “This is worth it.” For me, it’s never just a job; it’s a passion-driven collaboration every single time.
When I commit to a project, it’s with the intent to bring meaningful change, and I see every engagement as an opportunity to create something lasting and valuable. I dive into each collaboration with the goal of building momentum—providing insights that spark action, strategies that drive results, and a partnership that feels authentic. Working alongside people who share this vision of innovation and integrity keeps my work challenging and fulfilling, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
