| Position | 2nd Cornet |
| Nickname | The Viking |
| When/How I started banding | 1999 – Joined Stangaland Skolekorps (OK, Norwegian! Translation: Stangaland School band/Junior band). 3rd Cornet, Soprano Cornet, Principal Cornet 2004 – Joined Stangaland Brass (senior band). 3rd Cornet, 2nd Cornet, Repiano Cornet. 2008 – Quit both bands and went to university in Southampton, and joined Downton Band on 2nd Cornet. |
| Best-ever banding moment | Coming 2nd in 4th section with Downton at Regionals 2009 |
| Worst-ever/most embarrassing banding moment | Trying to play the soprano solo in “Selections from Lord of the Rings” with sticking valves. Not such a good idea, apparently… |
| When I joined Downton Band | November 2008 |
| Favourite band piece | Don’t think there’s a particular one that stands out. |
| Least favourite band piece | Most arrangements of popular music. Some songs are not meant for brass bands, and that is how they should continue their existence. |
| Anything else... |
