In Norway she is known for a number of high profile TV shows including the 2023 hit crime drama series ‘Die Saat’ (The Seed) in which she played the female lead, Thea.

Other notable highlights include having a small role in the award-winning Norwegian fantasy drama series ‘Stardust’ which won Best Live Action Series at the prestigious worldwide Kidscreen Awards and in 2010 she played Sgt Angua in the BAFTA nominated Sky One 2-part drama series ‘Going Postal’, based on the fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, which starred Charles Dance, John Suchet and Claire Foy. 

She has starred in a number of Norwegian films including the comedy film ‘Everybody Hates Johan’, a role which earned her a Best Supporting Actress nomination in Norway’s Amanda Awards, which take place at their annual International Film Festival. She had a role in the acclaimed independent film ‘Gritt’ which received a number of awards and nominations on the Independent Film circuit and she played the lead in the 2019 award-winning Norwegian thriller ‘The Spy’.

In 2006 she won a Best Actress ‘Amanda’ Award for her lead role in the sci-fi horror film ‘Cold Prey’.  She then went on to star in the sequel, Cold Prey 2, earning herself another Amanda Award nomination.  And in 2004 she won a prestigious Hedda Award for Most Promising Newcomer - this is the Norwegian Theatre Awards - given to her for her stage performances during that year
