I was born in 1998 in Zurich and completed my BA degree in Industrial Design at the Academy of Art and Design HGK in Basel, Switzerland, in the summer of 2024. During my studies, I was supported by a scholarship from the Fritz Gerber Foundation für begabte junge Menschen. With my Bachelor Thesis Project «unico» I won the Global Footwear Award 2024, got nominated for the Swiss Design Association Award. And unico is one of the Green Concept Award finalists in the Kids category!
This website shows my design portfolio as well as a little insight into my boatbuilding skills.
Apart from boatbuilding I have worked as a sailmaker at Elvstrom Sails in Southampton UK, as an illustrator, graphic designer and lecturer for the Höhere Fachschule Haus der Farbe in Zurich, and completed a four-month design internship at Dukta GmbH in Zurich.
During the fulltime Industrial Design studies I worked part time as a sailing Instructor for adults at Sailbox AG in Zürich.
