I'm Anne and I live in Kolding with my partner and our fluffball (aka cat). I'm a graphic designer and an absolute nerd who has been messing around with design since 2014. To put it very briefly: I love building things. This includes design - I love concept development and building brands and identities. From the very first sketches to a fully realized campaigns. And I love experimenting with tools, techniques and materials as I go. My curiosity is a huge part of my drive and it is what pushes me to find new and exciting ways to combine modern, digital design with traditional media (just to mention one example). I love finding the weird, unique and special stories to tell rather than picking the most immediate or obvious choice.
I love drawing, long walks, rain, horror, fantasy and my favourite movie is Labyrinth from 1986.

Experience:
Graphic Design Intern at LEGO
LEGO Systems A/S (January - March 2023)
A 3-month long internship at LEGOs digital department, where I had the pleasure of working on their various websites, including Star Wars and their Adults Welcome site. I primarily worked in Figma but I occasionally helped with making animated content for their social media channels. This internship was a dream come true and while the work itself was so much fun, the best part of it were the brilliant and lovely people I got to work with.
