Hallvord R. M. Steen is a dance and computing enthusiast. He has been working for Opera Software since 2001 as part-time Customer Support Consultant and Core Quality Assurance Tester, contributing to the development and quality of the Opera internet browser.

Completely by chance, Hallvord figured out that combining a dance and an IT career is a perfect match - not only because the former is a mostly physical and the latter a mostly mental discipline but because both dance and software development requires a hands-on approach to execution time and must perform well in limited spaces. Besides, what's more natural than combining dance and Opera?
