was born and raised in the oldest Kingdom in the world: Denmark, home of the vikings and home of H. C. Andersen. It’s a small country spread over 400+ islands in the north.

From a heritage of old-world farmers who worked the land with hands and horses, I grew up in a village of just 180 people, surrounded by beautiful nature and a wide variety of animals.

While still living in Denmark I attended The Academy of Fine Arts in Århus, before leaving my home country behind to continue my studies at Pratt Institute in New York City.

I was able to afford only one year at Pratt Institute. It was one of the best years of my life. After that, I was faced with the choice of returning home to Denmark or taking the leap into a career as an artist. I knew what I wanted – to be an artist, so I took the leap began my career as a freelance illustrator.

It has not always been an easy path, but it has always been the right path. Every day I wake up, I am so thankful I get to do this for a living. I now resides in Austin, Texas with my beloved husband, where I thrive as a full-time creator.
