From the age of 16, I was lucky to secure internships at the biggest creative names in Germany. ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช After high school, I travelled through Australia and fell in love with Melbourne. ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

Simultaneously, I was privileged to work for industry leaders, like denkwerk ๐Ÿง , FOND OF ๐ŸŽ’, Ryzon ๐Ÿšด and DUMBO ๐Ÿ˜ โ€“ designing products and experiences. ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ
