{{< figure class="avatar" src="img/author.jpg" alt="avatar">}}
Software engineer and computer scientist based in Stockholm, Sweden. I lead the
open-source work at [Glasklar Teknik][], a sister company of [Mullvad VPN][] and
[Tillitis][]. Some of the topics I'm passionate about include cryptography,
Linux, privacy, programming in Bash/C/Go, and transparency logs. The last few
years I got into self hosting. The overlap between research, development, and
operations is fun.

Off work you will find me reading books, playing boardgames with friends,
improving my cooking skills, cruising around on inlines, running, and such.
## Project involvement
I am a member of the following projects:
- [C2SP][]: a project that facilitates maintenance of cryptographic
specifications using software development methodologies rather than IETF-like
consensus.
- [Sigsum][]: a free and open source software project that makes a signer's
key-usage transparent. It can be used as a building block to secure the
supply chain and more.
- [System Transparency][]: an open source project that provides a security
architecture for bare metal servers. A system's entire boot chain becomes
protected and auditable.
- [Tor][]: a 501(c)(3) US nonprofit that advance human rights and defend online
privacy through free software and open networks.
- [Witness Network][]: a community effort that gets transparency logs
cosigned.

## Selected software
I develop and maintain software on my free time. You might be interested in:
- [silentct][]: a Certificate Transparency monitor that filters out the noise.
- [onion-csr][]: a tool to domain-validate onion addresses with CAs.
