A designer based in Leipzig, Germany. As the founder of smalltribe, a digital product design studio, I have dedicated my career to helping good companies bring their ideas to life through beautiful and functional designs.

Previously, I worked as a freelance designer for 12 years, serving clients such as Spreadshirt and Staffbase.

Throughout this time, I enjoyed collaborating and partnering with other freelance professionals. These experiences led me to create smalltribe, initially as a Slack community for German-speaking freelancers.

After two years, the idea of founding my own studio grew bigger and almost took shape organically, as if it wasn't planned. In February 2022, I decided to establish smalltribe as a company and soon partnered with Stephan Mann.

Aside from my work as a designer, I have been making music since I was 14 years old. You’ll most likely catch me listening to bands like Queens of The Stone Age or Kvelertak.
