I am an interdisciplinary designer and art director with an international perspective, based in Munich Germany. Previously I have worked and lived overseas for four years in Toronto, Canada. I graduated from Trier University of Applied Sciences—including a five-month exchange at the École supérieure d’art d’Épinal in France—with a degree in Visual Communication Design, and have been building my career in the design industry since.
My goal is to create work that solves problems of all kinds and lives beyond our own fleeting cultural moment. Research, a commitment to craft and a strong dose of German efficiency underpin everything I do. However, I am most readily defined by my flexibility, moving easily from digital to print to illustration and beyond. I work with clients of all sizes and from various sectors, both local and international, and pride myself on translating abstract client visions into focused brand communications. I aim to form long-term relationships with all of my clients—and overdeliver on their expectations.
