About
I'm a Swedish-born, award-winning designer that takes a human-centered, design-based approach to helping progressive organizations.
I see myself as someone who solves complex communication problems by translating human needs into understandable, actionable visual information. I am particularly passionate about sustainability and environmental issues. Proud moments in my career include securing $29M for public transit and providing 200 beds during catastrophic floods by way of design. I have a fondness for the solarpunk movement.
My idea of good design is this: In order to make something that people want to use, you need to understand how people experience that something. To do so, you need to engage in user experience design, a systematic investigation and design of how people are using your product; why they are using it, and how they want to use it.

I most recently served as Principal Product Designer at Copperleaf Technologies, with the mission to create the most intelligent and user-friendly decision-making software in the world.
