About
Cecilie grew up on the west coast of Norway in a small town called Haugesund, where she in her early years started acting in theatre. Today she mainly works in film and TV where her last projects include the award winning tv-series "State of Happiness/Lykkeland" and the comedy hit series "Next Summer/Neste Sommer".
Having a passion for action roles, alongside comedy and drama, she has a black belt in Taekwon-do and has experience with parkour and film fighting, in addition to several years of experience with singing, dancing and competing in Bikini Fitness. She early on found a great interest in languages and accents, and always works on developing these skills for different characters.
