Hi there!
I'm Nikolaj Riise (and yes, it's pronounced like rice in English). I'm originally from a small town called Lemvig in West Jutland, where it's always windy, but since 2022 I've been living in Copenhagen.
Why Copenhagen? Although it's quieter and the air is definitely cleaner in Lemvig, it's hard to get anything to grow, except crops that grow crooked due to the wind.
I love bringing quirky ideas into the world and watching them grow into something special. Whether it's ideas for advertising, branding, visual identities or videos.
I'm passionate about learning new things, inspiring others, and creating concepts that challenge others and can help create change - preferably with technology and humor involved ;)
