Her higher education includes a MA degree from the Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam, a BA from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts of Lyon, an international Baccaleureate of philosophy, language and literature, and the participation to the study course Psychology of Language at the Universitetet i Tromsø.
She has exhibited and worked for several cultural platforms internationally and across Europe, and is now engaged at Fotogalleriet in Oslo as Project Coordinator for the upcoming anniversary exhibitions, publications and public archives.
