I was born under the cold Danish sun and have lived in warmer places since then. I love to create and tell stories, and my preferred medium is film - but also other ways of expressing are of my interest depending on what I am nerding.
I do my own artist work, but also work as a creative consultant in different types of areas.
Reach out any time you want.
