MASTER THESIS
Since my earliest childhood I wanted to become a creative.
Starting to draw and shape figurines I also re-shaped some of my purchased action figures with clay,
if they didn’t suit me well.
It is no coincidence that I have been doing that until today, even in a slightly different manner:
Character designis one of my main talents. In combination with powerful software like ZBrushI am able to createa broad variety: Fromhumanoid characters tomonsters and alien creatures.Due tomy past and present as movie enthusiastI get inspiredin developingmy ownideas forcharacters,scenarios and narrations.
To realize my ideas professionallyI started my academic life with my bachelor studies, where I was taught the principles of design.To bracemymedia creation skills I enrolled at FolkwangUniversity of the Arts for my master studiesin cooperation with the SAE institute.For graduationI was able to create thecomplete video game demoof »INQU –Searching for Origin«. I used the medium »video game« to achieve the goal of complex narration in combination with elaborate visual design.
My philosophy of life is to work in the creative direction, where I can unite my fertile activities with my interests. These range from my movieenthusiasmup tomy preference in sports. I discovered CrossFit some time ago –the perfect way for me to coordinate balance, strength, stamina, precision, agilityand physical feeling.

SKYSCRAPER HYPERION
​
The Skyscraper Hyperion is a retrofuturistic flying vehicle inspired by the bold proportions and chrome styling of classic American automobiles, combined with the optimistic Space Age visions of the 1950s.
Instead of conventional wheels, the Hyperion is lifted by four integrated turbines, while a distinctive glass bubble canopy replaces the traditional roof. The design combines the character of a classic American automobile with a vision of personal flight in a retrofuturistic future.
​
The Starscraper emblem combines American heritage with the optimistic spirit of classic Space Age design. The Earth, framed by a rocket and its sweeping trajectory, connects California and the United States with the idea of exploration and a future beyond our planet.
​
The emblem was also translated into a sculptural hood ornament, transforming the rocket, orbital trajectory and Earth into a single continuous chrome form.
