About me.
I have 15 years experience working around CRM related software projects of programming, system engineer, training, support, project management, sales as well as writing handbooks and doing translations. I work comfortably in all levels within a company. I speak and write Swedish and English fluently and I speak basic French and Spanish. Three years ago I decided to take a break from the computer business and concentrate on my - around the world sailing project, thereby only taking short term work that fitted my simple boat lifestyle. However! Now, I can easily commit myself to a year or two, as we are in warmer waters.
