Kirien E is an Ecosomatics Practitioner and Nature Therapy Guide based in Oslo who blends 11 years of software and UX experience with contemplative practices to support personal and ecological transformation. Previously a front-end engineer at Cognite and Marin Software, Kirien has deep hands-on experience building React/TypeScript applications, design systems, and test suites while also engaging in product, research, and cross-cultural collaboration. Today they hold space for heart-centred encounters using methods from Buddhist meditation, Forest Therapy, Ritual arts, and relational mindfulness, often working across languages and continents. Their background in computer science and plant biology informs a rare interdisciplinary lens on the relationship between technology, human identity, and the more-than-human world. Comfortable both debugging complex UI flows and facilitating vulnerable group processes, Kirien brings pragmatic technical craft together with ecological care. They are intentionally low‑profile online but open to thoughtful conversations about technology, nature, and belonging.
