She was formerly the chair of EKHO, and worked with RFSL's Health & HIV group for 20 years. She was one of the activists behind Frigörelsedagen ('liberation day') in Stockholm in the 1970s. The movement eventually grew into Stockholm Pride.
In May 2020, she died from COVID-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden.
