About
Hello! I’m a Scandinasian designer based in Oakland, CA, currently working with the talented and inspiring folks at Slack.
I also teach design (UX and Visual Design and Branding), mentor, and have had the opportunity to speak at design conferences and events in the US and abroad.
Previously, I was Design Lead at a startup called SuperHi, an online code and design school for creatives. I’ve also worked at agencies in New York and early-stage startups in Santiago, Chile.︎
