“There is no design without discipline. There is no discipline without intelligence.”
-Massimo Vignelli
Profile
I am an outgoing and collaborative designer with focus on concept, user experiences and strategy for delivering timeless solutions.
I manage design projects from ideation to delivery, collaborating with developers, stakeholders, and end-users to ensure quality and consistency. Additionally, I leverage my skills in logo design, branding, and typography to create visual identities and guidelines that reflect the client’s vision and values.
As a Senior UX/UI & Graphic Designer, I apply my 13+ years of experience in design to create engaging and intuitive digital products and services for clients across various industries.
My muticultural background and education in both, design and hotel management, equip me with valuable knowledge that helps me understand clients, users, and their needs. In addition to that, I aim to find structured and creative solutions to the brief at hand.
My portfolio is diverse with clients from startups (e.g. restaurants, gyms, webstores) to governmental agencies (e.g. the Norwegian Parliament, the Norwegian Environment Agency, the Norwegian Innovation Group).
My passion is designing solutions that are user-friendly, aesthetically pleasing, and functional.
