About me

Sharp on numbers.
Clear on purpose.

I'm based in Copenhagen, and I've spent the last five years inside fast-growing scale-ups trying to answer one question: how do you efficiently scale an organisation without losing sight of what matters? I've sat at the table with founders and C-level in scaled complexity — and learned that although the question is always the same, the answer keeps changing.

That's meant working across the full breadth of finance and operations — from strategy to controlling. My work spans the full picture — from the financial model to the process that makes it run, and the project management that makes it land. I care about the output, but I care just as much about building something that gets sharper every quarter, not just busier.

How I can help

Where I can add value.

01Data
Building the foundation — infrastructure, definitions, and the pipelines that make everything downstream reliable.
02Analytics
Turning data into decisions — KPI hierarchy, cohort analysis, unit economics, and the metrics that actually drive growth.
03Strategy
Translating insights into a plan — forecasting, budgeting, valuation, and the scenarios that shape direction.
04Implementation
Taking the plan into the organisation — project management, cross-functional coordination, and the delivery that closes the gap between strategy and reality.
05Automation
Designing processes for consistent outcome — AI-assisted reporting, automated workflows, and the infrastructure that lets your team focus on decisions, not spreadsheets.
06Continuous Improvement
Getting sharper every quarter — process design, automation, and removing the friction that slows teams down.
