Biography

I was born in 1981 in a small town in East Germany.

From 2001 to 2007 I studied Illustration at the University of the Arts in Berlin. During that time I studied in New York City and in Liverpool.

Since graduating I have been working as a freelance illustrator and designer for editorial and other projects.
