I am a Swedish screenwriter working primarily in psychological thriller and drama. My stories tend to follow characters who are misunderstood, pushed to their limits, and forced to find strength they did not know they had. Survival is something I am drawn to. Currently completing a professional screenwriting program at Story Academy, Sweden, where I have written two features and a TV pilot, as well as having several writers' rooms. Before turning to writing, I spent thirteen years as an administrator with the Swedish Police Authority, working with serious crime cases. That experience shape the stories I tell.
