tl;dr version

 

Hello there! I’m Chris, an Art Director currently living and working in Hamburg.

Born in Bangkok, in the rising moon of the goat, as half German and half French I learned how to walk, talk and get up to all kind of shenanigans in seven cities around the world.

After studying Marketing & Management, I realised my real strengths and passion lay in the craft; In the conception and actualization of ideas, rather than the numbers behind them.

I am a sports enthusiast. Watching people do it, while myself being seated, is an amazing thing. And when I’m not actually chasing a ball, you better believe I’m chasing dogs.

My German half knows how to work, but thankfully my French side also knows how to enjoy life.

Call or text me if there is anything I can do for you.
