Update from New York!

January 24, 2015

I haven’t been updating my blog in a long time. Mainly due to the fact that Johnie Hjelm and I have relaunched our side project Crip.io which has been consuming most of my free time. It will continue to do so in 2015. I’m very happy to have Johnie as companion and strongly believe that we will achieve great things in the future. We’ve done 8 Podcasts so far, 2 video interviews and a third one is on its way. I’ve been working from New York, and Johnie from Stockholm. We have a couple of new projects coming up for crip so stay tuned.

Saying goodbye

June 27, 2014

Mobility is Life

March 20, 2013

Mobility has always been important for me. To be able to move, to be able transport yourself from one point to another are key factors in order for me to live an independent life. I was born with a spinal cord injury. That means that my nerve roots are damaged and my legs are half-paralyzed. I’m using a wheelchair in the daily life at home, at work and when exercising (never slept with it though). I sometimes even using it to do Tony Hawk inspired stunts.
