About Me

Five years ago, I decided that I just couldn’t sit in an office for the rest of my life. I asked myself: “If not for my dream – then what am I going to live for?” So I quit my job as a journalist, packed my bags and jumped on a plane to Los Angeles to start my acting career.

After two years of acting school, attending different acting studios and striving as a freelance actor in Hollywood, I went back to my home country, Norway, where the journey now continues. After finishing my musical theatre studies at Bårdar Academy last year, I did an eight month season as a singer and dancer at Garbo's dinnershow in Gran Canaria.

Before this crazy adventure started, I was a professional gymnast, competing worldwide for the Norwegian national team for several years. I am now transferring my acrobatic skills onto the stage through training in ballet, jazz, contemporary, hiphop, breakdance and more. I have also been an active musician since I started playing the trumpet at age six, and still play at events by request.

When not working on stage, I teach private and group classes in acrobatics. I'm hoping to hear from you, whether you want to learn some acro or work together on a show!
