I am lucky to have been born with a set of parents who gave me the trust that things will probably work out just fine. ​

​

Because of this mindset, I have been able to go through life curios, eager to learn and with an optimistic outlook on life.

​

Born in the US, grown up in Norway, I was fortunate to study and work in Northern California.

 

For my education, I did my grammar school in Norway and then my university years in California with a Bachelor of Science in International Business and MBA from California State University. 

 

My work experience in Silicon Valley has included 10 years of corporate venture capital for a Japanese conglomerate, 3 years as the leader of a Norwegian venture hub, 7 years of early stage venture capital in environmentally friendly technologies. 

 

After these Silicon Valley years, I made a change and enjoyed 10 years of living in the western rural part of Sweden.

 

My focus was on experiencing the Swedish side of my heritage, the country life with horses, local entrepreneurship and part-time B&B hospitality - all in one. 

 

I am now back in San Francisco, enjoying connecting with family and friends - old and new. 

​

Best wishes,

Eva
