Born in 1975 in Oslo and living in Drøbak with my husband and four children. I grew up with photography, as my parents were photographers and owned a small photography business. I studied photography as part of my bachelor in college but knowing the ups and downs of the photography business, I also studied to be a teacher in special education.
I worked as a special education teacher and adviser for many years. A couple of years ago I took up photography again. The last years I have worked on personal projects mentored by Laara Matsen, Damian Heinisch and Katharine MacDaid.
My work is inspired by my life experience, my teaching and my love for nature.
