Who's U?

“Who are you?” might be the most difficult question in the world. I won’t bore you with all the details, but for the curious, here’s some background information on me (or U?).

I was born in Potsdam, but at the age of five my family moved westwards, first to Aachen, and then to the Netherlands. In 2004 I was admitted to the Art Academy of Maastricht, where I could pursue my passion for creating, drawing, painting and photography. In 2006 I started a student company named Artisjok, which turned into a real business after I finished my studies in 2009. In 2007, I developed the educational project eduC.A.T. to work with youths worldwide, and it was successfully implemented in places such as Suriname, South Africa, Guatemala, and Mexico. In 2008, the Art Center Rick in Weert showcased my first individual exhibition called “Identity”. In 2010 I decided to move back to Berlin, the city of my origins, where I co-founded the Internet start-up and social business Karmagames.

I’m always searching for freelance graphic design work or interesting projects where I can combine my artistic talent with my organizational skills and follow my passion for education, self-development and creating positive change in the world. Look here if you’d like a more formal resumé than above.

I know, what you do is certainly not the same as who you are. But is there any better way to live than to be paid for who you are? That is why I keep the things I do as close as possible to who I am. So come explore my website to find out “Who’s U?”
