Work
I work at the intersection of data and creative industries, applying my skills as an analyst and storyteller to communicate complex subject matter in a manner that engages and informs the reader.As the world's first music data journalist I helped grow Next Big Sound to the leading provider of online music analytics by publishing industry-defining research.From authoring and teaching a course on data analytics for the music industry with Berklee College of Music, to launching the influencer marketing program and virtual event series for remodel startup Beam, and as Head of Insights and Stategic Initiatives with Universal Music Norway, I had the opportunity to learn hands-on how to build, define, and engage audiences, lead and create alongside teams of data scientists, engineers, designers, copy-writers, creators, and community managers in order to execute successful and targeted campaigns.
About
In my free time, I turn all my hobbies into projects.A curiousity for interior design and property development has led me to remodel multiple homes (come stay here or here!) and launching a small Scandinavian interiors shop, featuring some of my favorite brands from home. I also wrote a quirky series of children's books on data viz called Vizkidz and was featured as part of the #Stem10 documentary series by Amy Poehler's Smart Girls.I recently became a certified yoga instructor, completing my first 200hr teacher training in Vinyasa Flow with the Atman Yoga School in 2026.I have two little girls who keep me on my toes, and a co-founder in life, David Hoffman. After 10 years in New York, three on the west coast and a year of fun in the sun in Florida, our family moved back to my hometown of Oslo, Norway last year. It's quite dark here in months ending in -r but otherwise we love it. ;)(Oh and my Duolingo streak just passed 1000!).
