I'm a Copenhagen-based Sr. Brand Designer and Creative Director, so I'm both a hands-on designer and a department lead. Being heavily concept-driven, I crack the "big idea" across visual identity design, packaging, web design, illustration, motion, digital marketing, and photo direction, and then get into the tiny details to make sure the solution is the best version it can be. Some career highlights include: * Leading 30 global brands (Jockey Woman, Amazon, Disney Hotstar) in one year, which saw an average 15–20% increase in client engagement. * Leading Market Pantry Core and Kids for Target Retail, which grossed $1 billion in sales in 2025. * Leading Tabitha Brown for Target, which grossed $70 million in sales in 2025. As a design lead, I also bring ownership to complex briefs from day one needed as a brand designer. It also makes me highly curious about cutting edge technology and trends. As a result, I’ve delved deeply into AI and have actively used it to create a variety of creative assets (animations, imagery, and illustration) to support larger ideas and strategies. I believe my background would make me a great fit for this role. Thanks for reading!
