I’m a passionate researcher! I dedicated my Ph.D. to diving into the fascinating effects that cold water has on special forces soldiers and athletes tackling the incredible challenges of extreme triathlons.

I am currently concentrating on Cold Weather Operations, particularly Arctic TCCC and delivering extended care in cold conditions. I am also keen to investigate how the human body reacts when tested to its limits, especially in cold environments.

I have been the Chief of Safety, Medical, and Research at Norseman Xtreme Triathlon for 20 years. Since starting my PhD in 2015, Norseman has become a flourishing hub for research on human physiology. We now gather annually in Eidfjord and Rjukan as a group of researchers at Norseman. It presents a perfect opportunity for us. Expect to see plenty of triathlon, cold water swimming, and similar topics in my newsletter.

Before taking on my current role, I spent fulfilling years as a Rescue Paramedic for the Air Ambulance in the breathtaking Arctic region of Norway. I also had the privilege of serving as an armed forces officer for several years, which gave me incredible adventures in various challenging settings.
