Professional Experience

I started out as a self taught web developer at an advertising agency in Sweden, worked my way through a couple of different agencies in different positions and came out the other end as art director. After moving to Berlin and having a break where I sorted snail shells at the natural history museum and wrote two books, I have worked freelance, at an agency and lately inhouse at a tech company for a couple of years

Education

I started out with a design focused high school and then followed university studies in design theory, product design, typography, web development, agency internships… I built my own curriculum and rounded it off with a three year program in media production and project management.
