Work

I'm a freelance illustrator, designer & software developer based in Copenhagen, Denmark. I help people and businesses bring their ideas to life through design, code and illustration.

I've worked as a Senior Software Engineer at Danske Bank, as a Fullstack Developer & UX Designer at DiningSix, and as a Developer at Handyhand — alongside years of freelance work. That mix of corporate, startup and independent experience means I can adapt to any project and any team.

How I Can Help

Design

From brand identities and visual systems to user interfaces and pitch decks — I create designs that are thoughtful, functional and visually engaging. Whether you need a logo, a full brand extension, or a polished UI, I'll work with you to get it right.

  • Brand Identity
  • UI / UX Design
  • Visual Communication
  • Presentation Design

Website & Hosting

I design and build fast, responsive websites — and I can handle hosting and deployment too. Whether it's a portfolio, a storefront, or a custom web app, I build with performance, accessibility and maintainability in mind.

Illustration

Custom illustrations, icon sets, spot art and patterns — I use a mix of digital and mixed-media techniques. My illustration work supports branding, editorial, and product design.

Delivery + Support

When I deliver a project, it doesn't end at handoff. Every project comes with one month of follow-up support after delivery — bug fixes, adjustments, questions, whatever you need. You get a working solution and the peace of mind that I'm still around to back it up.
