About me

Curious about people, ideas and the world around me.

I live in Tromsø and enjoy turning ideas into something tangible. Sometimes that becomes teaching; other times an event, a piece of writing or a digital project.

What matters to me

I believe in kindness, curiosity and showing up. I thrive in communities where people can grow, take responsibility and discover new sides of themselves.

Teaching and volunteer work have been part of my life for a long time, but they are only one part of who I am. I also value nature, books, travel, technology and good experiences shared with others.
