About My Practice

We live in a global economy and your financial planning should reflect that. Having lived, worked and traveled on four continents combined with my Bachelors and Masters in Economics I have a thorough understanding of global economics and geo-political issues.

I am originally from Denmark with a Bachelors and a Masters degree in Economics from University of Copenhagen (a.k.a. cand. polit.).

I am married to a native Hawaiian, Jennifer and we have one son, Sebastian and a chocolate Labrador, Kona.

I have a passion for traveling and have been to more than 40 countries so far. Outside of work, I enjoy the cultural scene and reading. In the sporting area I live to play squash, badminton, tennis, golf and of course soccer! I am fluent in Danish, English, Norwegian and Swedish and have a working knowledge of French and German.

I am an independent CFP® who offer customized financial planning. My comprehensive approach means that I will hold a team of best-in-class subject-matter experts accountable to make sure that you as my client get the best advice to hopefully get your financial house in order, and keep it that way - forever!

I do understand that your situation is special and you deserve uncompromising standards. That is why I do offer a complimentary consultation where I want to understand your values, goals and what is important to you.
