Ten Facts about me: 

1. I wouldn't say mornings are my mortal enemy… well, actually that's pretty accurate.

2. I can almost perfectly impersonate the singing rabbit from the Skittles commercial.

3. Sometimes I think it’s ridiculous that I get paid for what I’m doing.

4. Sometimes I think it’s ridiculous how little I get paid for what I’m doing.

5. Listening to Hans Zimmer's music while watching people handle sudden stormy weather, entertains me pretty good.

6. I like ads that have a smart twist, as well ads with surreal and surprising elements.

7. Clicking the “random-article”-button on Wikipedia, to gain more knowledge of nonsense, became a weekly ritual.

8. For a seriously long time I played a sport called unicycle-hockey. It’s the truth.

9. Math is not a strength of mine.

 

I’m a freelance Art Director/Creative Director/Designer and Illustrator.
