About me

I am a Danish/American dual citizen living in Copenhagen.

I am an architect and partner at ZESO Architects where I am in charge of our aviation design work. I have been involved with the design and optimization of airport terminals for the last 25 years and most recently with a focus on regional airports.

In the past five years we have designed new airports in Greenland and expanded or optimized Aarhus Airport, Sønderborg Airport and Vagar Airport in the Faroe Islands.

I have worked on designs at Copenhagen Airport during the last 20 years and continue to do so.

We are involved in a consortium to visualize the buildings and infrastructure required for eVTOL and other forms of drones and electrified aviation.
