About

For the last ten years I’ve been working with development within the mobile arena. As many of my best and most driven colleagues I started out as a tester and now, many projects and roles later, I’m currently working as the product owner for the IKEA store app. My focus has mainly been from an iOS and Android perspective but the relation towards web can never be neglected from a multi-channel perspective. Even though it’s an app project it usually needs to be driven with web development to some extent. When it comes to app development my passion has always been retail oriented projects. Especially projects combining or extending online journeys with, for instance, a “mortar and brick store” in a true omnichannel experience.
