Some of my earliest memories include playing the original Ratchet and Clank and watching animated TV shows. I'd sketch out what my own imaginary games and made-up shows would look like. Then I would typically hide the sketches under the carpet.

At the age of 13 I made the pivotal decision to pursue my passion at the only higher technical vocational school specialized in teaching animation —HTL Spengergasse.

After graduating and getting some experience from working internships and small side hustles, I was happy to be given the opportunity to prove my accumulated skills when working at PlanRadar as the in-house video generalist. My role included but was not limited to the creation of ads (both recorded footage and animated), the creation of tutorials, working with the marketing-team to develop campaigns, storyboarding and documenting/photographing at events. I am immensely grateful for these experiences.

After 3 years of gaining work experience I decided it was time to deepen my knowledge and so I moved on to study digital arts at FH Hagenberg. Throughout this journey, I've been involved in a range of projects, wearing different hats, from tasks in live production to stepping into the director's role.

Now, as I'm wrapping up my bachelor's degree, I can't help but wonder what the future holds for me.
