Thomas is currently working in the Innovation Lab of the CJIB, where he studies the role of architecture in combination with social issues. As a partially self-employed entrepreneur, he enjoys sharing his knowledge and experience with others. Thomas has been fascinated by computers from a young age. In 2001 he began his career as a database developer, working primarily on ERP applications such as PeopleSoft. Soon he saw the need for data warehousing for integrated data analysis. A few years later, he seized his opportunity in the early days of server virtualization, driven by his love of new technologies. Nevertheless, Thomas returned to the field of Business Intelligence, this time at Norsk-Tipping. His technical background, combined with the experience in BI and his commitment to social issues, resulted in the development of more and more architectural solutions.
