A Short History

I grew up in Denmark and fell in love with computers when my grandfather gave me an Amstrad CPC 464 in 1988. I joined Squarespace in 2010 and have been fortunate enough to create and lead the product design team across our publishing, commerce, analytics and marketing products for close to nine years. Today I dedicate my time to the most impactful projects at the company. I live in New York with my wonderful wife, our amazing son and three

okay cats.
