Ole about Ole

I was born and grew up in Struer, lived in the Aalborg area since starting at university, and also lived in Great Britain for about 3 years. I now live in Lillevorde near Aalborg with my wife Kate and our two girls Sigrid and Charlotte. It seems that maths and science were always in my genes, and already at school I found programming very interesting. One thing led to another, and I ended up as a software engineer, and here I am still working with software today.

My strong points:

  • I am good at working with complex systems.
  • I am good at formulating problems rigorously and logically, and at finding correct and efficient solutions.
  • I am positive and enthusiastic.

My weak points:

  • Accepting that some problems cannot be formulated rigorously and logically.
  • Stopping when something is merely "good enough".
