I'm a composer, sound artist, and independent researcher based in Sweden, working at the intersection of acoustic and electroacoustic composition, spatial audio, and interactive systems to build sound fields that can be entered rather than just heard.


My work explores mundane and spontaneous sonic gestures, layering them into narratives through systems that shift with the listener's position. It investigates agency within various sound fields: what shapes them, and how much of that shaping can pass to a body listening inside.
