Playing for Eidsvold TF he joined HamKam ahead of the 1985 season.[1] He played first-tier football and was capped for Norway youth and under-21 sides.[2] In 1990 he joined Lyn, securing promotion to the 1991 Eliteserien where he scored 7 goals in 20 games. He went on to Stabæk.[3] His prolific goalscoring helped the club win promotion from both the 1993 2. divisjon and the 1994 1. divisjon.[4]

He was not a Stabæk squad member for the 1995 Eliteserien, instead joining minnows Heggedal IL.[5] He was later assistant coach under Tor Ole Skullerud for Bærum SK in the 2003 1. divisjon, among other roles in the club.[6]
