I’m a director, designer and artist with 20+ years of experience working in games, interaction design, comics, animation, kid’s media, playful advertising and education. Digital, print, toys, you name it. This is my portfolio page.
For the last six and a half years, I worked as game director and head of client projects for Studio Fizbin (2018–2025). Our studio was part of a wave of studio closures by our publisher. So, I am currently looking for new opportunities to bring my experiences to new teams, ideally in leadership positions.
Before that, I ran my own casual games studio for five years (2009–2014), taught game art and was project supervisor at Games Academy for over 9 years (2009–2019), and worked as a freelance designer for around 17 years (2001–2018).
To not go crazy, I like to hang out with my family and pets a lot, go hiking in the forests around Berlin and obsess about cool art, films, games, comics, animation and toys.
