Biography

Bøgsted was born in Skive in 1983 and is the son of politician and former member of the Folketing Bent Bøgsted. He grew up in Ringkøbing-Skjern municipality. Bøgsted trained as a waiter during college and then worked as a manager for Vestas.

He was elected to the city council of Ringkøbing-Skjern as a member of the Danish People's Party (DPP) and became chairman of the party on the municipal council but lost his seat in the 2021 Danish local elections.
