Who am I?
Editor, Writer, Communications Consultant
I am an editor, writer and creative strategist in the fields of design, travel and lifestyle. My dreams have brought me all over the world – I have lived in the Philippines, Sweden, Germany, Spain and currently, the Netherlands, while traveling constantly to seek the most inspiring and meaningful developments in design. A creative writer and communications consultant with a flair for words: I am here to bring character, inspiration and a sparkling story to your brand.
I love discovering new places, meeting (and connecting) people, taking in contemporary art and design, documenting memories and exploring the world. I am the author of Scandinavia Dreaming: Nordic Homes, Designs and Interiors (Gestalten), which illustrates today’s evolving story of Nordic design. Inspired by the book, I created Keen On Walls, an online platform which showcases interiors and design which make one fall in love with the great indoors. As a design journalist, I write for Dezeen, Frame, Trend Tablet, among other websites and publications. I think fika (Swedish: a cozy time spent with friends, family or a loved one, with coffee and cake) is the best thing on earth!
