Go to Post Launch Post

Ever since he started programming simple games on his 8-bit computer back in the day, Simen has been passionate about how software can deliver powerful experiences. Throughout his career he has been a sought-after creator and collaborator for companies seeking to push the envelope with their digital end-user experiences.

He co-founded Sanity because the state of the art content tools were consistently holding him, his team and his customers back in delivering on their vision. He is now serving as the CTO of Sanity.

Simen loves mountain biking and rock climbing with child-like passion and unwarranted enthusiasm. Over the years he has gotten remarkably good at going over the bars without taking serious damage.
