Bio
I am a Copenhagen-based photojournalist whose lens is dedicated to unraveling the complex narrative of our planet’s transformation. With a primary focus on climate-induced migration, the challenges and opportunities arising from climate change, and the intricacies of human rights, I strive to visually document the impact of these global issues. I graduated from The Danish School of Media and Journalism in 2009 with a degree in photojournalism and have since then collaborated with both Danish and international newspapers and magazines.
