    • News Anchor
      • Jan 2021 - Present

      The biggest-selling newspaper across the Nordic region was founded in 1830 and adopted Internet publishing early on. Since the launch on August 25th 1994 the main news service is free at aftonbladet.se. Aftonbladet started doing television in 2006, with good old fashioned broadcast channel but after a couple of years out was rerouted to be exclusively on the site. Since then Aftonbladet TV has set the standards for Swedish online Videojournalism. 2014: Won the INMA Global Media Award for "Best Idea to Grow Digital Audience or Engagement" 2018: Won the Swedish Newspaper Award for "The year's Sound and Image" for the reporting during the terror attack in Stockholm in April 2017. Aftonbladet recruited me in January 2021 to further develop Aftonbladet TV. Firstly as a News Anchor but also for the greater purpose of taking Swedish Online Video to the next level. Show less

    • Freelance Journalist
      • Sep 2013 - Present

      Freelance Journalist, based in Sweden, open to ventures around the globe. I have my own equipment to do TV reports, but am also used to working with photographers. I research, shoot, edit, do live reports, host and produce longer tv productions. My specialities are Europe and Latin America. Clients: Associated Press (AP), VICE, Sveriges television (SVT), Story Productions, Aftonbladet, World Bank, etc. During 2013 and 2014 I was based in Rio de Janeiro, working the whole Latin American region. I did hard news and feature stories, viewed through the perspectives of the people who are actually affected by societal changes. My main assignment was being a stringer for SVT, the Swedish broadcast television, but I also did other jobs on the side. In 2018 I resumed my freelancing with customers such as VICE, Aftonbladet and SVT. Show less

      • Sep 2013 - Jul 2014

      Reporting on everything from breaking news to feature stories from South America. For example these include the protests against the World Cup in Brazil, the Presidential elections in Chile, toy guns being prohibited in Brazil's capital Brasília, the violence in fotball stadiums, etc. My aim is always to find the "little person" who can describe the big story. I do the pre-production of my own stories and I love being close to the people. Being fluent in both Portuguese and Spanish allows me to get access to complicated places. No matter how complicated the area may be my motto is to be nice to all and so far I have always gotten smiles back. Show less
