Norwegian Art Director & Designer based in Antwerp.
I’m an Art Director and Designer with over 10 years of experience working across brand, product, and digital design. I’ve led creative work for both agencies and in-house teams, helping consumer and tech brands build clear, scalable visual identities that work in the real world, not just in presentations.
My background spans branding, campaigns, product launches, and everyday brand touchpoints. I’ve worked hands-on while also managing and mentoring designers, collaborating closely with marketing, product, and growth teams to translate strategy into strong, consistent creative output.
I’m particularly interested in visual systems, how brands show up coherently across platforms, markets, and moments of growth. I care about craft, but I’m equally driven by clarity, decision-making, and momentum. Good design should feel intentional, not precious.
If you’re building something and need someone who can both shape direction and execute at high level, I’d love to chat.
