Art and design are in my blood...well, on my mom's side of the family, at least. I grew up, driving my mom crazy by doodling on everything. My mom is artistic and creative in her own right; my mom's sister a very talented artist; my 'little cousin' a world renowned photographer.
​
I combine my irrepressible love of art with my deep love and respect for animals, and concern for our environment, so I work with cruelty-free and earth friendly, sustainable mediums, which align with my beliefs.
I graduated from UT Austin with an art degree, then went on to get my teaching certificate in languages; my certificate in plant-based nutrition; my master's and am now pursuing a degree in interior design / architecture.
- a problem solving, polycreative polyglot. (Try saying that five times, quickly!)
​
I'm from Sweden (the birthplace of Skype, Spotify, Candy Crush, Minecraft, Ericsson, IKEA, H&M, Skanska, Securitas, Scania AB, ABBA, Roxette, Avicii, among others), a country where design - be it music, fashion or architectural / interior design - is always considered.
Scandinavian design typically emphasizes comfort and function, while still being very chic, and I suppose that I am a product of that mindset. Though I embrace - no, am in love with - many, many differing styles, function and comfort are paramount to me, believing Sullivan's axiom that, "Form follows function".
