Hi, I'm Julie - a globe-trotting, design-loving adventurer who swapped a stethoscope for a sketchpad to chase my creative dreams around the world!

Originally from Stavanger, Norway, I started my journey at a media and communication-focused high school.

After graduation, I packed my backpack and traveled the world for a year.
During my travels, I faced my deepest valleys and highest peaks, growing in ways I never thought possible.
I rolled cigars in Cuba, scuba-dived in the Mexican cenotes, surfed the waves of Costa Rica, climbed the mountains of Brazil, savored the cuisine of India, and felt the power of the ocean in Sri Lanka.
I wrapped up my adventures by showing fellow citizens of the world the best waves in Portugal and dodging sharks on Australia’s Sunshine Coast.   

After my travels, I gave in to the social pressure, moved to Bergen, and studied economics for a year.
I then settled in Stockholm, Sweden, where I spent four years studying to become a Naprapath.
After completing my studies, I worked as a Naprapath for three years, but despite finding success in the field, my heart was always dedicated to design.

So, I decided to bid farewell to my Naprapathy career and pursue my true passion.
Now, enrolled in the Digital Creative program at Hyper Island, I'm finally living out my dream.

Lets chat, maybe over a Matcha Latte?
