Born in Boston to a Canadian mother and Norwegian father, paralegal Erik Ramberg grew up in Vancouver and Oslo. His parents met in Kingston, Ontario at university, and as a child he learned to navigate the two cultures. “As a young kid moving back and forth it was hard to adjust to each, but looking back at it now I’m definitely grateful for that experience.” Both Canadians and Norwegians have the reputation for being polite and diplomatic folks, and Erik fits that mold. His cool but friendly demeanor and calmness under pressure is legendary. Seriously, people will be talking about if for years to come.
