About

I have a fashion & textile background, specialized in concept and innovative solutions with a multidisciplinary approach. I received a BFA in Fashion & Textile Design from CENTRO, a MA in Design from Konstfack, and have taken multiple courses ranging from photography to entrepreneurship. The use of organic materials and a mix of contemporary & traditional processes is a constant theme in my practice.

Currently in Stockholm, Sweden.
