With 20 years of experience inside of the financial industry, 2 years as fintech entrepreneur and 3 years as a management consultant behind me I am now a Tech Strategy Consultant at Bearing Point, A Pre-Seed Venture Capitalist at Erik Ventures and a CEO at Calista’s Publishing, an independent publishing house. As a consultant I help Financial Services Customers across the Nordics. Wherever business or regulation meet technology there will be a need to interpret, translate, implement and understand many perspectives and, ultimately, to drive things forward and make them happpen. These are the things that I do. I am also an investor, through Erik Ventures, where I make early stage investments in private equity or debt. My area of expertise is within finance and so that is the area where I could provide both knowledge and network. Although finance / fintech is my home turf, and so the preferred area, anything can be of interest. I am actively looking for investment opportunities and prefer to take an early stake and then be active in an advisory board. If you have a great idea and need early, smart, money then please do get in touch. I am also a CEO at Calista’s Publishing, an independent publishing house. Our first book out is our own book, Calistas Paradox, a Novella and a Management Book conbined shedding light on the little understood phenomenon of ”Legacy”
I broadcast my adventures with my Land Rover Defender Puma from 2008 with my tailor made Landy Camping Trailer and/or my trips with my boat Ailén, a 2001 Albatross 871 Flying and/or my kayaks. Or any other silly or sensible journerys I am on. The aim is to provide a view of an alternative route to continue go all-in for the rat-race. There are so many other things our there to see and it can be balanced with a proper career. I want to walk my own talk and lead by example on that.
I develop and maintain Senior Management relationships with Bearing Points’ Financial Services clients across the Nordics. I bring seniority and experiance to situations that are hard to solve.
I help Financial Services Customers across the Nordics in implementing technologies, streamling processes and to use data in a better way. Wherever business or regulation meet technology there will be a need to interpret, translate, implement and understand many perspectives and, ultimately, to drive things forward and make them happpen. These are the things that I do.
Spiro & Spero is a small cartoon series. It depicts the life of a small head-footer-doodler and his doings. Its mostly light-hearted, but at the same time related to real life dilemmas and challenges. I started drawing this for the school magazine back in 1993. It may look AI generated but no AI has ever been anywhere near this. Its all proudly hand crafted by myself, since 1993. BOOM! 💥
