Born and raised in Heilbronn, Germany, I lived, worked and studied in Belgium, Ethiopia, Ivory Coast, Singapore and South Africa.
In 2018 I returned to Germany after 34 years living abroad and I have settled down in Wachtberg near Bonn. I am married and have two grown-up children.
My artistic career initiated in 2007 with oil painting, portraying and Basic Interior Design at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Singapore.
From 2013 to 2018 I attended the Académie des Beaux-Arts de Watermael-Boitsforts in Brussels, Belgium, where I engrossed my theoretical knowledge and my practical skills in acrylic painting and mixed-media techniques. There, I also added works on paper and collage to my portfolio.
Since 2016, I as well attend practical art classes and art workshops at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, Germany, as a student of Stewens Ragone, artist and instructor in the painting studio. In his art class my focus lies on mixed-media collage and works on paper.
From 2018 to 2020 I was a student of Heather Sheenan, artist and instructor in the sculpture studio at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, where I have created objects with different materials.
In June and December 2017, I participated in a study course organized by Sati Zech, artist and instructor, at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste Kolbermoor, Germany. There, I consecrated myself to sculptures and installations.
In 2018 and 2023 I have attended workshops with Sati Zech. The main subjects were space and three-dimensionality in drawing, painting, collage and objects.
In 2026 I have attended a workshop with lecturer Lisa Bille at the Kunstverein Bad Godesberg, Bonn, in high pressure and gravure printing.
From 2019 to 2026 I was an art history student at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, Germany.
