Agent

byHands

Oslo, Norway

Current Position
I currently work as an illustration agent at byHands, representing a roster of 15 illustrators. My role is similar to that of a project manager in a design agency, with the added responsibility of advising clients to ensure they are matched with the most suitable illustrator for their specific needs.

Previous Experience
Before joining byHands, I spent seven years as a project manager at ANTI, and two years as a designer and project manager at McCann.

Education and International Experience
I hold a degree in Graphic Design from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. After graduating, I spent nine years in London working as a graphic designer for agencies such as David James Associates, Wednesday Agency, and the BBC. During this time, I also designed and produced a clothing line for Topshop under my own brand.

Additional Experience
In addition, I have experience as a music journalist and editorial assistant at the Norwegian cultural magazine Natt & Dag.
