My passion is transformation, my experience weaves together, a unique and powerful combination of high intuition, a holistic approach, a natural aesthetic sense and a commercial mind. The fabric of how I work draws from over two decades of design experience, as a leader and visionary in trend forecasting for global companies and as founder and creator of a luxury brand sold in the world's most exclusive retail stores, interwoven with personal inner work.
Working with both brands and individual clients, I inspire them to nurture their creative dreams,
tapping into the heart,
transforming them into a tangible reality.
This is carried out through my work as a mentor, creative consultant,
courses and luxury lifestyle label Alice & Astrid.
