I was born on 31th of October 1983 in Norway, and spent my first years in Strømmen and Rælingen. I now live and work in Oslo.

I studied graphic design and illustration at the National Academy of the Arts (KHiO), Oslo, finishing with a Bachelor’s degree in visual communication in 2006. In 2008 I finished my Master’s degree at the same school.

I’m currently working as a freelancer within the fields of graphic design, illustration and comics. I also do some photography and web design. My main area of expertise is, however, that of graphic novels and comics. The last few years I’ve also done some book design together with the Norwegian artist Guttorm Guttormsgaard.
