About Me
I'm a Game Designer and Programmer from Düsseldorf, Germany.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the great fortune to work on some truly inspiring projects, while meeting influential and creative individuals along the way.
​
I’m eager to pull my weight and add to your team with a flexible mindset, creative problem-solving skills and a helpful and down-to-earth manner. I’m well organised, reliable and a fast and eager learner.
A BSc in Game Design and past contributions to high profile projects allow me to apply my theoretical knowledge and also strategically improvise when needed.
If you'd like to know more about my experience, portfolio or how we can collaborate on an upcoming project, get in touch today.
