I am a 26-year old photographer living in the southwest of Germany. actually i work as a photographer in a traditional portrait-studio in stuttgart-center. when i was a child i wanted to become a painter like my spanish grandfather or a comic-artist. i loved to draw, read french and manga comics and to invent stories. later i was also interested in art, design, biology, human genetics and literature. i thought about studying at the university. but things developed a bit different.



i finished Gymnasium (=german schoolsystem) in 2001 with good grades and "Abitur"(title that allows you to study at any university you want). 2002 I made a 6-month practical course in a design-agency (designum). 2005 i worked in a computer company while studying computer science. 2006 I successfully absolved computer-science and mediadesign at the professional school ADV BB with the title "staatlich geprüfte informatikern" and good grades

(= professional computer scientiest).

altough my german grandparents were photographers and once had their own studio in stuttgart-east, i never thought that i would be interested in photography too. until the day i bought myself a digital camera in 2005. i needed photos for my website about facepainting (a hobby i had to that time to earn some extra-money). so everything started. suddenly i wanted more, it was like if something in me woke up. soon after that time, i started my education as photographer. 2006 i moved from the country to the city to start my photographic education. I hopefully will finish it succesfully in 2009.
