He graduated from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm in 1921. There he worked under Professor Lars Israel Wahlman, a noted architect. His education at the Institute taught him the architectural vocabulary that he used in his work. After a short practice in Sweden, he relocated to the United States. In later life he returned to Sweden, where he would die in 1980.
