She started making her first short films during the mid-nineties, and her first feature film was Veranda för en tenor (1998). One more short film was followed by the dramas Tillfällig fru sökes (2003) and Sex hopp och kärlek (2005). She then concentrated on screenwriting and directing the comedy TV show Kvalster (2005).
