I put most of my Ubuntu work in the Danish LoCo-team, where I now serve as the friendly neighbourhood treasurer and board member. Formerluy, I was the LoCoContact for quite a lot of time (2+ years). I have participated in quite a lot of events, both as a speaker, a booth-keeper and done some of the organising. Although I sometimes get a little too involved in heated discussions, I usually serve as a diplomat trying to keep the community work together.

I also open my home to two fellow geeks once in a while to record the ubuntu-dk podcast, which I also edit.

Project Involvement

I put most of my Ubuntu work in the Danish LoCo-team, where I now serve as the friendly neighbourhood treasurer and board member. I also open my home to two fellow geeks once in a while to record the ubuntu-dk podcast, which I also edit.

General future prospects

As an active member of the LoCoteam, I hope that we will be able to further drive the rise in the interest that we have experienced the last couple of years.

Me outside of Ubuntu

Currently, I work as a consultant in the Ministry of Economic and Business Affairs. My business card says 'Government Official' - how cool is that :-). I am also writing my Masters thesis in Geography at the University of Copenhagen.
