When did you believe in yourself the most?
When negotiating with big festivals, athletes, or ambassadors, I am confident that there is always a win-win for both parties. The brand I work for has a lot to offer credible individuals with passion. I am always excited to talk about the opportunities, and those are the moments when I believe in myself the most.

Which Matinique item in your wardrobe holds a special story - and why?
I recently got a light brown Matinique suit, which I had the pleasure of wearing as the best man at my best friend's wedding. It was truly an incredible day, and the suit's impeccable style was a perfect match for the occasion.

How can clothing express your personality?
Clothes have a big effect on how comfortable and confident we feel when we go outside. Most of the time, I like wearing casual clothes like t-shirts and jeans. But sometimes, for work or special occasions, I need to wear fancier clothes, and I really like the stylish clothes made by Matinique. I’m a big fan of the clean and well-fitting styles of clothes from the Nordic countries. Fashion is a way for me to show who I am and make my everyday experiences better with more self-confidence.

What do you dream of?
Overall I feel like I’m living the dream already. I'm becoming a dad in August for the first time, so I can't wait to hold the little one and start a family. It's an amazing next step in life. In addition to that, I love branding/marketing, and I always write down the affirmation of becoming a global brand manager for a well-known brand. Monster is one option, but Nike is also capturing more and more of my attention. Ultimately, it's all about staying physically and mentally healthy and sharing incredible experiences with your loved ones.
