Creative Direction entspricht dem Schnittpunkt, an dem Art Direction und Design auf Strategie treffen; sie trifft gut informierte Entscheidungen inmitten schwieriger Entscheidungen, wobei das Hauptanliegen darin besteht, sicherzustellen, dass das Endergebnis des Kunden stets unterstützt wird. Als Creative Director, mit über 25 Jahren Erfahrung, bin ich im Bereich Print Design und Marketing tätig; von kreativen High-End-Konzepten und internationalen Werbestrategien bis hin zur Corporate Identity und Markenentwicklung. Seit 2023 sind wir als Team im Bereich großflächiger Wandgestaltung aktiv; mit Expertise in der Inszenierung und Produktion von großflächigen und hochwertigen Textil Fototapeten mit extravaganten Gestaltungsideen und durchdachter Konzeption.

I am a Creative Director with 20+ years experience in marketing and print design: from high-end creative concepts and international advertising to corporate identity and brand development. 'Creative Direction' champions the intersection where 'Art Direction' and 'Design' meet 'Strategy', making well-informed decisions amongst tough choices with its primary concern in making sure to always support the client’s bottom line.

In the summer of 2017, after living for 12 years on the Northshore of Oahu in the Hawaiian Islands, and 14 years in New York City, I decided to move to Germany, where I grew up originally, to care for my ailing dad, and to continue my creative work with new projects and challenges. In addition, I decided to start working on a book about my 26 years experience in the US, from when I finished my studies (Visual Communication) in Germany, then moved to New York City (on a Fulbright Scholarship) to finish my Masters in Media Studies, followed by International work experience as Artist, Sr. Art Director and Designer, and returned to Europe 26 years later.

In the fall of 2019, I decided to take 2 month off and walk the “The Way of Saint James”, “The Camino” across Northern Spain. 500 miles on foot, starting in Saint Jean Pied-de-Port, crossing the Pyrenees, 5 weeks on a pilgrimage to Santiago De Compostela. It turned out to be one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life and a time I don’t want to miss. I connected with people from 35 different countries, that all shared a common bond: the passion for the Camino, and became “Ohana” (Family). It was one of the greatest adventures of my life and I promised myself to do it again within the next 10 years.

The Camino is all about making connections and being positive, to see ‘Beauty’ everywhere. I came to understand that the successful philosophy in art and business is to share resources, to collaborate with other talents, to contribute to the overall success of a project through synergy of vision, as well as innovation … to create something new and sometimes unexpected within the process. I am as passionate as ever about my design work, my artwork, my travels and my writing. I look forward to connect with other creatives, ready for new adventures, new clients and new design challenges. ~ Life is really good. ~ Aloha.
