My professional Homepage

I started my young life as an apprentice in bricklaying, had a dream to become the greatest architect of all times (The Arne Jacobsen syndrome), but ended up as an engineers with the global workplace, as my domain.

I was only fit to be an normal architect. To be a director for a company vas not an option - do hate routines work, badgering in the corners, the 8-4 culture and those people with saw blades on the elbow.

I ended up on the global scene - free lance - and became a project fanatic.

For those there do not know what that means, can the following definition maybe be of help:

punkttegn

A project is a creation, unique in concept, with a life cycle of it’s own, categorized into a group of tasks and performed within a definable period of time, in order to meet a specific set of objectives.

punkttegn

Each project has it’s own merits, it’s own destination, determined by the Engineer and new technology applied, financial facilities available and the current human resource and their chemistry as a group.

Actually, I am born in 1937. My stepfather was Nordic champion in boxing and my mother was a poor farm girl from Jutland.

My mother had no money and no husband, so the first 2 years of my life, I spend in a Nuns nursing home in the country site, while my mother was trying to make a living and find a husband.

However as my mother and my new stepfather had decided to get married, I had to move with them, all though I was quit satisfied with were I was. You do not want to have a fight with my mother neither with a Champion, so I had to follow suit and moved to an old un-insulated summer house, at a lake site, far from nowhere, with no heating system other than, what we could collect in the the woods. -100 on the kitchen table in the winter time, but! lovely in the summer time. Not so bad after all - The pancakes was good.

That was the entrance to my life in a nation at war.

Now I am still living by "the lake", but this time ....up in the mountains over looking the Mediterranean and always in a nice warm climate.

This is the story of my working life.
