Biography

Through my work as an actress, my curiosity of the process of filmmaking emerged. In 2006, I was given a chance to experience the very centre of the Scandinavian film industry – at ZENTROPA. I worked as a production assistant at Zentropa Interaction and during this three-year journey in the world of movies, I got a taste for producing and it sparked my dream to one day, in fellowship with other passionate filmmakers, produce relevant stories.

I decided to acquire more skills within film production and became a frequent user of the supplementary training program at the National Film School of Denmark and the Short & Documentary Film School in Lyngby. As part of my education I produced and directed the short film “Standby” in association with C:NTACT and the Betty Nansen Theatre. I further developed my skills as a producer at Freeport Media and produced a number of TV & documentary productions.

Fiction, however holds my heart, and in 2012 the dream came true. I met director Dariusz Steiness. Together we established dk fiction, a company where we both can develop our visions for creating movies.

The same year we started the production of my first feature film “The Lost Ones”.
