Read the essay →I'm a writer based in Oslo, Norway, working across essays, fiction, and cultural criticism. My work tends to circle the same obsessions: language, memory, identity, and the strange ways people try to make meaning of ordinary life.
I've written for publications across Scandinavia and beyond. When I'm not writing, I'm usually reading, annotating, or thinking far too hard about a sentence I wrote three years ago.
