My name is Nina, and I live in the heart of Switzerland with my husband, our little son, and our two beloved cats. I adore our small garden and find peace in the work it brings. Just a short walk from our home is a beautiful lake where I can relax and take a refreshing swim on warm summer days. If you know Switzerland, you’ll understand when I say it’s a breathtakingly beautiful country—with its rich landscapes and majestic mountains, nature here is simply awe-inspiring.

As a child, I was deeply inspired by my grandmother, who was a talented tailor. She lovingly sewed and knitted clothes for all my dolls. Her studio was connected to my grandfather’s woodworking workshop—a mystical, creative space that left a lasting impression on me. That early exposure to craftsmanship sparked something in me.

In my teenage years, I began sewing my own clothes and pursued an education as a handicraft teacher. But I soon realized that teaching wasn't my true calling, and I transitioned into the fashion industry. I worked as a shop manager for a Swiss snowboard and skateboard brand, and continued to grow creatively through further training as a make-up artist and color and style consultant.

Then, in 2014, I had my first unforgettable encounter with a Blythe Doll. I instantly fell in love with her curious gaze and oversized head. It felt like an entire miniature world had opened up before me—and that was the moment NimaDoll was born.
