About

From Copenhagen to Phuket – and from salesman to CEO.

“Stay humble. Keep your eyes open. Choose where your energy goes.”

— Allen Aidino Nielsen

I’m a Danish entrepreneur and co-founder of BestSecurity.dk, which I have led as CEO since 2017. Born in Denmark and partly raised in Sweden, my background is in sales, customer service and design – and a journey that took me from Copenhagen via Dubai to Thailand, where I have lived since 2013.

Today I build companies in IT security, compliance, print and digital solutions – with one foot in Denmark and one in Phuket.

The journey

My story

No shortcuts – just a long line of decisions to try something new.

  1. Early years – 2003Denmark · Sweden

    Born in Denmark – raised in Sweden too

    I was born in Denmark and lived in Sweden for many years growing up, until 2003. Two countries early in life gave me the urge to see more of the world.

  2. 2009Copenhagen

    It started with service and sales

    My first jobs were at Hotel Nimb, Crowne Plaza Copenhagen Towers and Quiksilver. That’s where I learned to meet people and deliver service every single day. Alongside, I started as a Media Graphic Designer and project manager at Printdesigns.dk – a job I held for eight years.

  3. 2010 – 2013Copenhagen · Dubai

    B2B sales for the big players

    As an Account Manager I sold solutions for TDC Business and Telia Business. In 2012 I went to Dubai and worked for Telia Business from there – my first step out into the world.

  4. 2013Thailand

    Alone to Thailand

    In 2013 I moved to Thailand on my own for work. New country, new language and a completely new everyday life.

  5. 2014Phuket

    Heading south – and my first business

    A year later I headed south to Phuket. There I started my first call center – and life as an entrepreneur began.

  6. 2017Denmark · Phuket

    BestSecurity is born

    I co-founded BestSecurity.dk. We partner with a company and office in Rawai, Phuket, where a team in a range of roles runs a large part of the Danish business as a subcontractor.

  7. TodayDenmark · Thailand

    More companies, same drive

    Today I lead BestSecurity and Print Designs and build the FAKTIVE and pastWP platforms. I live between Denmark and Thailand – and I’m still curious about what comes next.
