I was born in 1985 in Austria and have always had a natural talent for drawing, paired with a creative spirit and a passion for film, animation, games, comics and art. After a hands-on training at a High School for Graphic and Communication Design, I briefly studied Art History in Vienna. Following my training in Multimedia Art at HTL Spengergasse, my professional path led me to work for startups in the games industry as a Concept Artist and Illustrator. Since 2012 I have been a self-employed graphic designer, illustrator and media designer, serving companies from diverse sectors with skills in print and advertising graphics, storyboarding, game and concept art as well as motion design. I continue to combine creative storytelling with visual design, helping brands bring ideas to life through compelling visuals, engaging concepts, and polished motion work.
