Hello,
I’m a Stockholm-based animator and illustrator specializing in high-end 2D animation, motion graphics, and illustration.
My background is in traditional animation, and over the past decade I’ve worked in a wide range of styles and techniques — from hand-drawn character animation to more design-led motion graphics. In all projects, my focus is on storytelling, atmosphere, character, timing, and clarity. Humor is not unimportant in my work.
Over the years, I’ve collaborated with other illustrators and designers to bring their visual worlds to life through animation. This is an aspect of my work that I find especially rewarding.
Recent projects include animations for Mini Rodini’s Spring 2026 table tennis collection, a set of animated emojis for the Swedish pharmacy Apoteket, and a large-scale Christmas campaign for the shopping center Fältöversten in Stockholm. I’ve also collaborated with design- and fashion-oriented brands such as Hermès, Kvadrat, Herman Miller, and Steen & Strøm, as well as larger organizations including Unionen, the Church of Sweden, and the Nordic Council of Ministers.
Alongside commissioned work, I develop narrative projects of my own. My debut picture book Sömntutan was published by Natur & Kultur in 2021. Click here to get your copy. In 2025 I was awarded Natur & Kultur’s working grant for my second book, which I am currently working on.
I hold a BA (Hons) in Animation from University of the Arts London – London College of Communication, and a degree in Motion Graphics Design from Hyper Island.
