My journey …

My journey into UX design began in 2015 when I launched a small commercial photography studio in Stavanger, Norway. Photography has always been a passion of mine, but I wanted to do more than capture moments—I wanted to help businesses tell their stories through distinctive, meaningful content. Over time, my role evolved. I branched into graphic design, content creation, and a variety of creative projects, all while collaborating with inspiring individuals who have shaped my path.

What truly drives me, though, are the people. People and their stories are the heartbeat of my work. Each person I encounter is like a puzzle, a beautiful complexity full of unique needs, quirks, and challenges. And for me, that’s where the magic happens. It’s about unraveling their story, understanding what makes them tick, and finding that perfect design solution that fits seamlessly into their world.

Whether it’s a small business owner striving to connect with their audience, a journalist racing against the clock to create compelling visuals, a lawyer with a disability needing better access to everyday services, or a busy mom trying to manage a dozen things at once—each story lights a spark in me. It’s not just about making apps or websites more user-friendly; it’s about making someone’s day a little easier, their experience a little better. That’s what gets me up in the morning—the opportunity to solve real problems and create meaningful change, one design at a time.

I believe design has the power to transform, not just in the way we interact with technology but in the way we experience life. And that’s why I’m here—to make sure that every design choice I make brings us closer to a world where people feel seen, heard, and supported in their everyday journeys. Because in the end, it’s the stories we shape together that truly matter.
