About Me

Page currently outdated. New updated version coming March 2012. Stay tuned!

So you wanna know more about me? Well this site is still under development but I will add stuff as soon as I figure out what else I find suitable and interesting to upload.

The academic stuff...

I have a bachelor's degree (B.Sc) in computer science from the University of Copenhagen and have completed some of my degree at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I spend almost two great years in America's Dairyland, officially known as Wisconsin, living in the city of Madison. After a short stop back in Copenhagen, Denmark, in the fall 2008 I have now moved to San Diego, California, USA. However I am still a grad student at the University of Copenhagen going for a master's degree (M.Sc) in computer science. Right now (as in today, tomorrow and several months ahead) I am taking classes at University of California, San Diego.
