Riassunto

With experience that spans over a decade, I am Iceland's only fully bilingual copywriter who writes in both Icelandic and English. During my career, I have had the pleasure to work with some of Iceland's biggest brands, both locally and internationally, and have gained valuable insight into how the Icelandic ad industry is different from larger markets. I enjoy working with colleagues around the world and hear their perspective on our industry, quality of work, and the ideas make them tick. I am a passionate learner and sometimes I think too fast. Luckily, I type fast too, so my hands can keep up with my brain.
