Bio

I work as a freelance web designer and instructor and live in Oslo, Norway.
I enjoy giving feedback to various plugins and themes or other products that peaks my curiosity.

I have been contributing to WordPress for many few years. Focusing a lot on improving the user interface of Gutenberg as well as other areas of WordPress. I have used Balsamiq and Figma to produce various mockups.
