Shaping cycle-friendly cities is something I’m truly passionate about.
Having worked as a city and regional planner in both the private and public sectors in Norway and Germany, I have over 20 years of experience in the field.
During my 15 years as cycle planner and advisor for Stavanger Municipality, I’m proud to have contributed to Stavanger winning the award for The Best Cycling City in Norway two times in a row.
Starting Sykkelambassaden is the realization of a dream, a dream driven by the desire to influence how cycling is planned and prioritized in Norway.
