Designer, zealot for change, lifelong creative, lover of small trinkets, and outdoor enthusiast.
I love the iterative nature of design and find myself energized by creating for people. That’s why when I discovered product design, I knew it was the path for me. In design, I see an opportunity to redefine what technology can do for people.
I grew up in Malmö, Sweden, and moved to Seattle, WA, at age 10. Since then, I’ve lived everywhere from Atlanta, GA; Beppu, Japan; Glasgow, UK; and Pittsburgh, PA, to Chicago, IL, now. The global community I've made fuels my creativity as design is a language spoken all around the world.
I am currently looking for full-time opportunities. Please check out my resume to learn more.
SELECTED WORKS
