Art Director / Graphic Designer
During the years at The Göteborg Opera I had the privilege to create marketing designs for many dance, opera and concert productions. The Göteborg Opera is one of the leading opera houses in Northern Europe – attracting prominent artists and teams from around the world. A house that simmers with ambition, talent and hard work.
I was responsible for designing and producing the key part of The Göteborg Opera’s printed communication, ads, branding items etc. Major projects; the extensive yearly programme and numerous concept designs used to market opera, dance, musical and concert productions. These concepts act as templates for each production’s visual appearance in a wide range of marketing channels, both offline and online.
Also frequently performing photographic work.

Graphic Designer
An instructive work journey. Now considered to be my 3,5 year introduction to the graphic design and marketing business. A time characterized by high pace and huge volumes of final art and graphic design work. Entered without any previous experience - left with a relevant skill set.
