I'm a designer who's passionate about creating things that matter. My work is driven by a playful curiosity into the intersection of technology and society. I like to make things with social purpose.
Currently solving complex design challenges at Designit

Making music together, with AI
In this project, I conducted an ‘interactive symphony’, an experiment using machine learning to generate an original piece of music. To start, I created a Miro board that was made public for a week. Here, anyone could add, edit, or remove whatever they wanted. The resulting board was a chaotic mess of elements created by a random group of people.
Fighting digital colonialism
An experiment in future technology governance. Digital colonialism threatens the freedom, security and democracy of humanity. Technology corporations have amassed ruling control over citizens’ access to key infrastructures, whilst extracting and commodifying the personal data of billions. Fighting Digital Colonialism speculates an alternate system of governance in which public bodies intervene to liberate citizens from colonisation by technology.
ML Karaoke Battle!
Imagine a karaoke machine that uses AI to blend two of your songs into an entirely new musical creation. That’s the idea behind ‘DeepKaraoke’, the outcome of a project exploring machine learning as a design tool.
Human first,
always.
As a designer, I’m deeply committed to understanding user needs and working collaboratively to create solutions that are empathetic and meaningful. Specialising in UX design, with experience across product and visual design, I strive to deliver thoughtful and impactful user experiences.
What excites me most about emerging technologies is their potential to transform how we interact with the world. I take a human-centred approach, applying technologies to create work anchored in ethics.
Currently I’m at Designit Oslo, working closely with diverse clients, embedding within software development teams to design lasting, user-centred solutions that drive results while meeting real needs.
