Swedish filmmaker based between LA and NYC. I built my career in London, making music videos and short docs for artists like Parquet Courts, Steve Gunn, and Daniel Blumberg. Moving on, I’ve collaborated with brands and agencies including Apple, DHL, Dr. Martens, Adidas, ZARA, Nike, McCann, JWT, BBH, and Net-A-Porter. In 2019, alongside a growing career as an editor in advertising, I launched SUBTITLES to produce AUTOSCOPY, a proof-of-concept short for my first feature narrative. It was selected at Oscar-qualifying festivals like Slamdance and Tampere and featured on NOWNESS. I then produced, shot, and edited my debut feature documentary, The Horse Latitudes—an exploration of sibling bonds through a transatlantic sail with my younger brother during Covid, which completed in 2024. At the core of my work, commercial or personal, is a deep need to tell meaningful stories—narratives that resonate and forge a unique connection with audiences.
