More 411 and fun facts:

​

In 2016 I graduated from the Nordic School of Design with a degree as "Sports, Fashion and Shoe Designer" and prior to that I studied at the Swedish School of Textiles.

​

I've always had a big need for expressing myself in various creative ways and beside design, sewing and painting, I also enjoy photographing and music. 

 

My biggest passion except for creation lies within the field of sports, nature and outdoor activities and I try to live that life as much as possible.

​

With a background as a professional sailor with medals and results from Swedish, European and World Championships, I have lots of experience of what it's like to work closely as a team under pressure to reach a goal.

I love spending time at the ocean and I still do some coaching and events to help others reach their full potential.

​

In the winters I spend every possible day on a pair of skis, either on a sweet face of a big mountain after hiking my way up there, or on a pair of cross country skis.​

​

I've been working at reputable companies such as Haglöfs, Pelle P and Sail Racing. These have all aligned well with my passion for outdoor activities, progressive design, sustainability and functionality.

I've also collaborated and worked in short term projects with companies as Scott Sports, Seger, Tommy Hilfiger and Gina Tricot.
 

In 2020 I started my own business to be able to work as a freelance designer/design consultant and have worked with projects primarily within fashion, sportswear and graphic design.
