A bit about me

I’m a former corporate lawyer with over a decade of experience leading a Montessori
charter school in Malmö. My journey has equipped me with a unique blend of legal
expertise and educational leadership, and I’m now channeling my passion into the
world of football, currently serving on the board of the Swedish Football Association.
My background includes significant involvement in the interest organization for
charter schools in Malmö (PIK), where I served as a board member, advocating for
innovative educational solutions. Recently, I launched my own consulting business,
focusing on sports and educational matters, leveraging my extensive network and
insights to drive impactful change.


Personal Life
I reside in Skanör with my wife and two children – both attending a Montessori
charter school, and when I’m not with my family, you’ll find me traveling, skiing, or
immersed in the exciting world of football.


Educational Insights
Through my years as a school leader, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative
power of choice in education. I believe passionately in providing alternatives to
municipal schools and empowering students with the right to make informed school
choices. My experience in the charter school landscape allows me to bring a valuable
insider perspective to the Bladins´board, along with strong connections within
Malmö’s school board and the broader charter school community.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute my expertise and passion to
furthering our goals in education. Together, we can create innovative pathways that
empower our students and elevate our community.
