Kristofer Giltvedt Selbekk

Excited to continue my presence in Bekk as Fagsjef! 🎉

Fagsjef doesn't really translate well, but makes me a part of a small group of people trying to figure out the best way to make our consultants the best skilled they can be.

Launched OPRA

I've always been in awe of the job done by people trying to save others. Rescue workers, firefighters, police officers and people serving in the armed forces - they all put their lives on the line to save people like you and me.

OPRA is a way of giving back to that community, by negotiating lots of really great discounts for this distinct group of people. It's been a huge success nationally, and we can't wait to get started on some of the bigger markets out there.

After 3 years of building Bekk's competencies around React, I found myself looking for new challenges. This new role - which roughly translates to "topic lead" - gives me a lot of freedom to improve Bekk's presence on the stages we want to be visible in.

Launched Sjau

After being locked down for a good month, I sat down to create a service for doing shared community work together without being together to do it. We call this kind of work "dugnads" in Norwegian.

The site got a ton of local news coverage, and several thousand users in no time. And it's free (and available in English), so give it a shot!

Excited to join Bekk as Fagleder, React! 🎉

Launched React Christmas

After being left alone with a 3 liter box of red wine, I bought react.christmas on a whim. I developed the entire site in a CodeSandbox in an evening, and started planning out 24 articles to write in 24 days. 😅

The site took off, with hundreds of thousands of people checking it out!
