Journalist
Documentary film director
I'm a Swedish born documentary film director and producer. I love combining work with travel and been living and working in NYC, Buenos Aires, Stockholm, Amsterdam. I am since 2015 based in London.
My past projects have been commissioned by BBC, Netflix, Al Jazeera, NPR in the US and SVT (Swedish Public Television). Today, I freelance as a shooting producer/director and do productions in the UK and worldwide - from documentaries to branded content videos. I'm an experienced shooter and have worked with several cinema cameras including, c300, FS5 and FS7. Moreover, I have a passion for video editing and work confidently in Premiere and Final Cut Pro.
I also work as a freelancing journalist and been published in major newspapers in Sweden and internationally.
I'm driven by human interest stories and to shed light on injustice, and my previous documentary projects have covered themes as sexual violence, mental health problems and transgender.
