I grew up in Lycksele, northern Sweden, where winter is long and kids learn early to entertain themselves.
My gateway drug was the family NES. Super Mario Bros. 3, Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! and Ice Climber turned into a lifelong fascination with how worlds are built on a screen.

When I wasn’t button-mashing, I was making ridiculous homemade action films with my brothers. We worshipped Peter Jackson’s Bad Taste and Braindead, mixed our own fake blood, and used firecrackers far more confidently than responsibly. It ruled.
Then came the Amiga 1200. True Brilliance. Pixel-by-pixel art. That’s where I realized you could build entire universes with nothing but time and stubbornness.
I studied art in high school, earned a Bachelor’s in Digital Media Production from Umeå University, and later attended Kalix film school. I launched my own film-production company and spent the following years working on commercials, series, feature films, and even a documentary that aired on Swedish national television in 2023. Primarily camera department, with some VFX sprinkled in.
In 2015, I jumped into games at Coldwood Interactive to work on Unravel. Right place, right time, right people. After Unravel Two, the studio eventually split, and I helped co-found Ånyo Studio. The team was strong, but the industry climate wasn’t, and the studio ultimately closed.
Today, I work with Windup Games as a VFX consultant, and I’ve co-founded MVRX Games with friends from my Coldwood days. We’re currently building our first title, planned for release in 2028. It’s shaping up to be something special—equal parts craft, chaos, and curiosity. Just how I like it.
Whether it’s films or games, the core stays the same:
I love making imaginary worlds feel real.
