About Me

Hej!

Since childhood, my dream has been to become an artist, but it was not until I was 15 years old that I found interest in visual communication. I saw a poster of my favorite musician hanging on the street, even though I was a quite cautious teenager back then I took the courage to tear it down and go home to frame it on my bedroom wall. The fascination kept on and after a while I had a whole collection. But after a while I realized that it wasn’t the musicians that made me love the posters, it was the design. That's when I realized that I wanted to create posters so appealing that people would react the same way as I did, I wanted to become a designer.

But enough about my immoral background story about how I found interest in visual communication. I recently graduated from Medieinstitutet’s Digital Content Design program where the I have learned a lot about graphic-, motion- and web design. My curiosity has led me to also learn a lot about illustrating and photography outside of school. In my work progress I value logic, functionality and consistency but also to dare thinking outside the box.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you want to work with me (or just have sit down for a cup of coffee)

See ya!
