About me

View profile
I am a Norwegian actress, born in Norway, but raised in the US. I lived in New Orleans and New York, and received my MFA in Acting from The Actors Studio Drama School in 2001 - a method based acting school. In 2001 I moved back to Norway. I've done mainly theater-, puppeteer-, and voice work, but I'd like to get more experience on film. I have some experience from short films, commercials and extra work. I speak Norwegian and American English fluently. I also have a background in dance, though that is more of a hobby.
