Growing up in Iceland, I was either drawing or spending hours by the shore. My grandma (a human rights, women’s rights, and peace activist) was one of my biggest influences. She taught me to stand up for what I believe in, and weekends with her involved either peaceful protests, going to the library or beach adventures. Collecting ocean treasures and learning the names of native plants gave me a deep respect for nature and the ocean.
My professional journey as an illustrator began during a study exchange in Indonesia in 2017, where I experienced the effects of plastic pollution firsthand. I felt I couldn't just sit on my hands and do nothing, so I started sketching and sharing it online. From there my creative design and illustration services were born.
With each piece I created, I was attracting like-minded people. I realized that other people cared as deeply as I did. Now I offer my creative services to organizations, NGOs and businesses that aim to have a positive impact on the planet.
