Startups forever!
I love start-ups! Since I came to the US from Norway in 1995, I've started three companies and helped raise equity for a few more. During the first dot-com boom, I founded and raised seed capital for Studystar – a Facebook for international students.
Today, I'm the Founder/CEO of Fabric Interactive – a web and mobile app development group based in Los Angeles.
Start-ups and brands hire us to build Alpha/BETA web/mobile apps in less than 4 months. Our current focus areas are: SaaS for marketing/agency vertical, geo-location and data aggregation, and real-time web.
Clients include Sprint, IKEA, Kia Motors, Porsche, Subaru, Yahoo!, and Hachette Filipacchi Media.
I'm also Co-Founder and Partner of Nice Guy Media - a creative production studio, housing TV, film and digital content creators. We develop Trans-media properties that integrate entertainment, branding, commerce and community.
I live in Echo Park, Los Angeles, with my wife, Torsten (sometimes with hammer) and our white pit bull.
