Welcome
Welcome to my small corner of the internet. This is where the professional and the personal live side by side — a bit about what I do for a living, a lot about who I am outside of it.
You’ll find my career history, some of my favourite places and things, and the occasional glimpse of what drives me. Pull up a chair.
About Me
I’m Allan. Born on Christmas morning in 1979, which explains a lot about my relationship with expectations. I live in Kolding, Denmark, with a strong pull towards forests, mountains, and places with no phone signal.
I work in IT — have done for over 20 years — but the word that fits better is curious. Curious about technology, about people, about what happens when you take a wrong turn on a trail. I’ve spent weeks alone in the wilderness north of the Arctic Circle. I play padel badly but enthusiastically. I’ve supported Middlesbrough FC since 2001, which has taught me patience.
This site is built with help from Woodhouse — my AI assistant — which feels like a fitting way to introduce myself.
A life in pictures
Some places stick with you. A mountain ridge at dusk, a trail that went on longer than planned, a moment where everything was quiet and right. These are a few of mine — not curated for effect, just honest snapshots of a life that keeps moving.
