Oliver Edholm
Alfred is extremely smart and knows how to build a perfect product. Don't hesitate to hire him. No matter what you do, Alfred will contribute significantly.
Carolin Solskär
As a member of the Create Squared project group Alfred did a fantastic job as the Marketing & Sponsorship Manager. Create Squared 2017 was the first time the event was ever done, and the group was only given the framework for how it supposed to look – the rest was up to them themselves to work out. They had to use their imagination and abilities such as bootstrapping were needed. The project group consisted of students from all the big universities in Stockholm (Stockholm University, SSE, KTH, Karolinska University and Södertörn University). To work in such a diverse group and with people from different countries is a challenge in it self, and for the team to manage to do this so well is a performance in itself. Alfred is very creative and did a lot of very innovative and good looking videos. Several times before, during and after the event, people pointed out that they where surprised to hear that this was a student organized event. This due to that the marketing and overall feeling of the event felt so professional. Above being the Marketing Manager Alfred was also part of the Sponsorship team, and was the point of contact for our main sponsor Nordea, as well as the one leading the meeting that generated into that Nordea decided to become our main sponsor. Together with the rest of the team, he managed to provide all the attendees a complete package to support them in growing their ideas to the fullest. They delivered a top class event, so much better than anyone could ever hope for. I am very pleased to have had Alfred as a part of this project.

Handiscover is a startup which is like AirBnb, but for those with movement disabilities. I started working on the admin panel, but they really liked my code so my responsibilities quickly increased. At the end of the summer I was working on critical parts of the website such as the front page. My main achievements at handiscover were: 1. Coded front page, profile, edit profile, search pages and many more. Both in CSS and React. 2. Programmed and designed an admin panel from scratch, which tracks user and website stats. 3. Made email template for Mail Chimp. Show less

During high school I founded an ad agency. We made various films for tech startups, events and golf clubs. I've also done some freelance work when I feel like making some movies. For example, we did the video on a kickstarter campaign for a startup called Botainium. They raised 140 000 $ in their campaign. During high school I founded an ad agency.
