I'm an artist with about ten years of experience in 2D and 3D Animation, 3D Modeling, Rigging, Storyboarding, Character Design and Compositing. I’ve worked for Nickelodeon, Apple TV, the ZDF, Joscha Sauer and Ralph Ruthe.

I focus on anything cartoony and stylised and am proficient in Adobe Photoshop, Flash/Animate, Toon Boom Harmony and Storyboard, After Effects, blender and Unity.
