Born and raised in Stockholm,[2] Kronlöf is Sweden-Finnish[3] as her parents are from Vaasa, Finland; her father is a Swedish-speaking Finn, mother Finnish, maternal grandmother Scottish, and through her maternal grandfather she has Afro-Trinidadian ancestry.[4][5][6] Kronlöf grew up in Nynäshamn and studied at the Stockholm estetiska gymnasium and went on to study at the Teaterhögskolan at University of Gothenburg between 2007 and 2011.[7] She has worked as an illustrator for, among others, SIDA and Barnens rätt i samhället better known as BRIS.[8] Kronlöf has also participated in video-art at Liljevalchs konsthall. She is known for her satirical humor and her work for feminism.[9]
In 2012, she garnered attention for her YouTube videos in which she played the role of Snubben ("the dude") and highlights the subjects of racism and sexism.[10] During her years of studies in Gothenburg, Kronlöf along with two other classmates started the feminist theater group Gruppen.[11]
In 2013, she was a travelling reporter for the Sveriges Radio and Sveriges Television charity show Musikhjälpen.[12] She travelled to Bangladesh to report on the situation for women in the country.[12][13] When Kronlöf's comedy show Full patte had its 2014 premiere on SVT Flow, her sister Tiffany Kronlöf also participated in the show.[14]
The magazine Nöjesguiden labeled Kronlöf and her sister Tiffany as "two of the biggest feminist role models in the country".[14] During 2014, Kronlöf participated in the comedy series Hårdvinklat on TV3.[15]
In 2014 and 2015, she had lead roles in two films, the Swedish feature Underdog (Swedish title Svenskjävel) and the Norwegian feature Verden venter.[16] She is also part of the theater play Gruppen och herrarna! at Stora Teatern in Gothenburg.[13]
