Graphic designer and illustrator. Munich.
Open to full-time roles, on site or remote.
Background
I am a graphic designer and illustrator based in Munich. Since my B.A. in Graphic Design in 2016 I have worked across branding, packaging, editorial and digital, in-house and freelance.
Until 2024 I was at Haibike Design Center, responsible for colour, trim and graphics across more than 170 bike models and three model years, plus the product visuals, presentations and point of sale material that went with them. It taught me to work inside a system rather than one artwork at a time.
Since then I have been freelancing and building Kindred, a children's clothing label I design, produce and sell myself. Kindred is where I do everything at once: identity, illustration, packaging, photography and the shop itself. It is the closest thing I have to a full test of my own judgement, because every decision has a cost attached to it.
I have also illustrated for Schwarzkopf, Swarovski and FTI Group, and taken on editorial and campaign work for agencies and in-house teams.

How I work
-
Step 1
Start with the problem
I start with the problem, not the visual. What the work has to achieve, who it is for, and where it will live.
-
Step 2
Share early
I share directions while they are still forming rather than presenting a finished surprise. It produces better decisions and fewer wasted rounds.
-
Step 3
Hand over ready
I hand over work that is ready to use: files organised, specs clear, nothing left for someone else to chase.
