Born, raised and currently living in Vienna, I was always fascinated with the richness of art that surrounds me. My fascination with illustration led me to graduate from “die Graphische” (Höhere Graphische Bundes-Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt), a graphic design school.
In 2004 I started working as a freelance graphic designer/illustrator as an associate of Alfred Koller and Studio Red, where I honed my skills in Adobe Photshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Freehand.
In 2010 I completely switched to work digital with Photoshop, Illustrator, Manga Studio EX and Sketchbook pro. This switch led me to get work done quicker, without compromising the quality of my output. In fact, the benefit in working digital is that required changes and adaptations for my clients are seamlessly integratable in my workflow. If needed traditional workflow methods are no problem.
In my freetime I have acquired a deep knowledge of visual storytelling in movies, even working on some student movie projects.
This, my experience in graphic design and my wide variety of styles give me the ability to easily get the point of the client across.
