Started playing at the age of five at a golf course in Sweden which was a 15 minute boat ride from the family’s summer house in Norway. Caught the bug quickly and competed regularly in amateur competitions before furthering his golfing education at the University of Denver.

His sporting career could have taken a different path if he had followed in his mother’s footsteps as she was a European skiing champion in the 1970s.

Topped the Challenge Tour's Order of Merit in 2012 and has represented Norway at both the World Cup of Golf (2013) and the Olympic Games (2016).

Has four Challenge Tour wins, most recently the 2021 Sydbank Esbjerg Challenge in Denmark. Went on to finish 12th on the Road to Mallorca Rankings in 2021 to earn promotion to the DP World Tour for 2022.
