Interests

Outside research my main interests are sports and spending time with my dog Mikko. I have always played a lot of sports, especially ice hockey (went to ice hockey high school, where we had ice hockey in our schedule), floorball (innebandy) and football (soccer), but I have also been doing quite a bit of weight training, skiing, squash and other sports where you use balls. Some people say I look like a three year old when I see a ball, and that is probably true since I can never stay away from them. If I see one there is not much that can stop me from playing with it... that way I guess my sisters dog Jessi and I have our similarities ...

Some Sports Teams of Special Interest

IF Björkloven, Umeå FC, Umeå IK, Roughriders,

When I was growing up I was extremely sports orientated. I was spending most of my time playing sports; mainly ice hockey. My favorite team is Björkloven, the team I played with throughout most of my youth.

Interesting Sports Sites

Hockey Team(s) this Season

Between 2000/2001 and 2006/2007 I was a member of the Thoroughblades (a Campus Rec "franchise" that have survived many generations of hockey players ...). In our peak season 2003/2004 we were undefeated (in both regulation and overtime) throughout the entire season; but lost the Campus Rec A final on penalty shots. Our record that season ended up being 19-0-2-1. The last two seasons we redeemed ourselves by winning the A championship twice, see images of our championship teams: 05/06, 05/06, 06/07, 06/07.
