About
Engineer by day and… everything else by night? Yeah, I am kind of trying to figure that out myself. In the meantime, here's a bit about me:
I grew up in Swakopmund, Namibia, moved to Berlin for university, and am currently spending a semester at NTNU in Norway. Outside of work I'm usually taking tons of photos I rarely post, sometimes sketching out a UI/UX idea nobody asked for, occasionally practising a DJ set, and slowly getting a small archive of old and embarrassing "film" work online. I kind of want this site to embody all of that, so enjoy browsing!

What happened to the passport??
The first version of this site used to be themed as a Namibian passport. Now it is not, lol.
