My story

I am a former communication and service worker, turned UX designer from Fredrikstad. I had a strong desire to make a career change and find something where I could create and use my personality traits for something good. As a hyper-empathic person, with years of experience working with people, I have a unique understanding of the human mind, their struggles, and needs.

Before my studies i researched the subject and had the opportunity to be a fly on the wall of an interaction designer working in Figma. I got to help solve some challenges, got good feedback, loved it, and that is when I concluded; that this is not something I can only do, my brain has a natural talent for UX-Design.

As of spring 2024 I graduated as a top UX-student at Noroff School of Technologies. I use the design thinking process as my guide and speak fluent UX-Design best principle and practices. In the future I wish to work in an environment where I can continue my progression and experience in the design thinking process.
