WHO AM I?

​

Good question! I suppose it depends on who's asking. My story began on a late autumn evening in 1975 in Kautokeino, a small Sami village far above the Arctic Circle. Nine months later, under dramatic circumstances, I was born via cesarean at Hammerfest Hospital.

From the start, it was clear that I had an appetite for life. Even as a child. My childhood was marked by frequent moves, my familiy moved alot, this preventing me from ever truly settling down anywhere. I found solace in nature. Growing up in the rugged north, immersed in both Norwegian and Sami culture and mythology, my early years were a whirlwind of challenging life experiences. At 20, I left the north and settled in the Oslo area in southeastern Norway.

At 27, following a profound spiritual and transformational experience, I altered my life's path, dedicating myself to the healing of the planet and its people. For many years, I traveled the world in search of spiritual tools and understanding. I studied numerous traditions and philosophies, drawing significant influence from visionary craniosacral work, Taoism, yoga, and contemporary shamanism, along with my ancestral heritage—traditional Sami shamanism. I was introduced to Noaidevoutha (Sami shamanism) as a child by my aunt, who was a noaidi (Sami shaman).

Since 2005, I have worked full-time as a healer and teacher, conducting courses, workshops, spiritual gatherings, and more both in Norway and internationally. In 2009, I founded my first education center, where I began teaching healing, craniosacral work, and therapeutic massage. With over 10,000 hours of hands-on experience as a healer and teacher, I also engage in public speaking and ceremonies. Currently, I work as a teacher, healer and mentor at Vaajma Academy, that i run together with my partner Daniella.
