Clear enough to use
Information and controls should make the next decision easier.
Preparedness · coordination · software
I turn difficult informationinto clear toolsand workflows.
I work across preparedness, coordination, volunteering and software. That background shapes the tools I develop, the activities I run and the way I structure difficult information.
Claims stay bounded
Evidence, assumptions and current limits should remain distinguishable.
Participation matters
Accessibility, shared responsibility and low barriers shape the work.
The projects range from active community operations to working software prototypes. Each page describes the current state, my contribution and the known limits.

Read the caseHow I work
Tools, activities and information people can act on.
The work starts with a specific obstacle: information that is hard to use, a team that needs structure, or an activity that must run safely more than once.
Tools and systems
Digital products and analysis tools that preserve sources, uncertainty and the reasoning behind a decision.
Community and events
Polaris activities, event material, equipment and logistics developed through weekly delivery.
Digital build and design
Websites, interfaces and visual material developed as working products rather than presentation exercises.
Community and events
Polaris is where the community work is tested every week.
Polaris Rucking Crew is a weekly civilian community in Oslo. The work includes recurring activities, events, equipment, communication, logistics and shared responsibility.
