I love making games and exploring how they work. I am also eternally curious and enjoy learning about everything from various fields of science, logistics to watchmaking. 
When I'm not doing that, I like to listen to music, read books, and look at memes,​​​​​​​ often doing all of them simultaneously.

Where do you see yourself in 20 years?

Hopefully still making games I love

What is a good design for you?

Good design is when the intent is communicated perfectly by the designer to the user.

What was the most challenging experience during your studies?

Navigating the broad and overwhelming world of learning design and understanding what I like to do.

Who or what inspires you?

A game studio by the name of Supergiant games has inspired me with their games and game development culture.

How do you approach a new project?

I love new challenges and opportunities to learn more, that is what I look forward in new projects

I have grown a lot, not only considering my skills in game design but also as a person.
