Mads grew up in Aarhus, and although he now works in film, it was far from certain that he would end up in producing. Storytelling entered his life later on - and suddenly he found himself in the fortunate position where his urge to tell stories paved the way for a career.

Mads holds a degree from Copenhagen Business School. He’s the first to admit that he’s no hardcore number-cruncher, but his bachelor’s degree gave him a solid foundation in economics, collaboration, and leadership - all of which he draws on daily in his work as a producer.

In recent years, Mads has worked as a producer in the commercial industry while also producing a number of shorts. He feels particularly at home in social realism, yet his natural curiosity drives him to explore genres and formats that challenge him as a storyteller.

Despite his business background, Mads primarily sees himself as a creative producer who is involved all the way from the earliest loose ideas to the finished film. Above all, he values cross-disciplinary collaboration and puts great emphasis on creating sustainable conditions for a safe and healthy working process.
