I’m an industrial design engineer passionate about creating solutions that make life easier and more enjoyable. I’m curiosity driven focusing on technology, creativity, and product development focusing on UX design and research, and service design. I also enjoy mentoring and teaching.
I’ve worked in different fields and locations; from the oil rigs in South Korea to the fishermen in the North Sea, to patient systems in the Swedish health care system. My CV is on Linkedin, for a description of my education and work background.
My primary goal is to make systems that area easy and enjoyable to use, that allows people to do their work better than they imagined they could.
I’m available for work and consulting in Linköping, Sweden
I’ve worked with everything from small startups to multinational companies, from apps to websites and large systems. I offer services in the full design span, from helping companies formulate a product vision and finding the initial user needs, through iteration and prototypes to launching a product and evaluating the outcome.

Mentor for a new, recently graduated, employee
It was a treat and a luxury to have Alva as a mentor. She supported me, cheered me on, and gave me challenges to sink my teeth into. She acted as a sounding board when there were things I wanted to discuss, and when things felt a bit rough.
