About Me

I’ve spent my career telling stories across film, television, journalism and photography. My screen credits include the 2021 International Emmy-winning drama series Atlantic Crossing, the internationally distributed children’s franchise Karsten og Petra and feature film Kule kidz gråter ikke, winner of the European Children’s Film Association award and audience awards at several film festivals. I have also directed documentary films and series.

​

Journalism and photography have run alongside my screen work since 1995, with a particular focus on women, children, gender, health, social issues, travel and human-interest stories. My reporting has taken me to India, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Kenya, Tanzania, the UK and elsewhere in Europe.

​

In addition to telling my own stories, I work as a script editor and dramaturg, helping others sharpen their narratives and deepen their characters. I also teach screenwriting and storytelling.

​

Whatever the format, I’m interested in stories that reveal something about people, society and the world we live in.
