He joined Hamarkameratene as a child and got one season on senior level before moving on to Elverum in 1989.[1][2] In 1994 he rejoined Hamarkameratene, now in Eliteserien, and got 12 games. He moved down one level to Skeid, but won promotion to 1996 Eliteserien where he played 24 games.[3] Not offered a new contract with Skeid in 1997, he went on trial with Dundee F.C. during the winter of 1996–97, but was ultimately not offered a transfer.[1][4][5] Instead he joined Kjelsås, where he managed 15 goals in the 1998 1. divisjon.[3]
