Hello!

I am a Norwegian product/industrial designer, specialized in finding simple and minimal ways to solve new and old problems. My designs have been sold, patended, awarded, loved, used and abused around the world.

My main expertise lies in 3D design and shape development, as well as research method and strategy. I am entrepreneural and passionate about my work, finding the greatest joy and purpose in working on meaningful, functional and beautiful products.

After many years in Korea, I moved to Finland in December 2020, studied Finnish full-time until I started working for Edea Design, where I am now working as a Senior Industrial Designer.
