Brief info about me
My name is Björn Kjellsson, I was born in 1983 in Umeå, Sweden, where I still live. In the Swedish general elections in 2006 I was, once again, elected member of the municipal council in the city of Umeå. I am also vice chairman of the Committee for gender equality and deputy member of the municipal executive committe.
I am a poltical advisor for the Liberal Party in the County Council of Västerbotten. I am also attending the cultural analysis programme (social anthropology) at the University of Umeå.
Besides this I sometimes take assignments for my own company where I educate students, teachers, buisnessowners, staff or others in questions about multicultural society and discrimination from an ethnicity perspective.
Now I live at Berghem in Umeå. Before this I've been living at Böleäng, Överboda, Grisbacka and Carlshem. My family consists of my mother Carina, father Lars-Åke and younger brother Pär. My family also includes the Scottish Terriers Ch Mårax Morticia, Ch Fenedge Gemini and Mårax Mary Queen.
