Things you always wanted to know about me, and never dared to ask.

For about four years I have been spending my life here in São Paulo, Brazil, together with my lovely wife Marcia and my son Constantin. Mainly I work as an illustrator, sometimes I develop websites and/or other software.

I was born in 1970, in Vienna, where I spent my entire childhood. After leaving college, I studied history of arts for quite a while. The the travel-fever got the better part of me and my trips led me to places, such as China, India, Pakistan, Syria, Jordania and – who would have guessed – Brazil.

After this period of lenghty travels I started to work as a manager of the development unit of a medium sized web agency in Vienna. There I was responsilble for the deployment of a few reasonably large sites (Nestlé, Citroën, VA Tech, among others).

Whenever I had time I ddicated myself to my other passis, which included painting, directing movies or plays, acting, designing of flyers and covers and my first experiments with comics.

In the meantime I had married and my wife Marcia wanted to go back to Brazil for a while, so I quit, bought plane tickets and we settled here in São Paulo.

Here, I spend some time in a science project at the Universidade de São Paulo, evaluating development processes for software factories.

At one point it became clear to me, that my future lied in the area I dreamed of, since I was a little kid – Comics and Illustration.
