Short Bio:
Grew up in the north of Sweden, basically in the forest. Dreaming about becoming a rockstar or a ninja. Playing in lots of bands and skateboarding. Started with a friend to juggle on the side. Realized it was super fun and started to practise up to 6-8 hours a day. After 2 years auditioned for the circus school in Stockholm and got in. And from there it started for real.
Defining moment in my juggling history: Got in to circus school and started to perform much more. Realized that a trick needs to be really solid in practise to be solid on stage…
Favorite Cereal: Don’t eat them but I’ll answer Cinemon toast crunch
