Hardworking, self driven, artistically inclined all-rounder. When I’m not chasing new skills to learn and practice, you’ll find me lost in fictional worlds; infatuated with animation and video games. I love to learn about people and their experiences and will gladly carry a conversation with you on a topic I know absolutely nothing about, preferably over some good food and a Negroni.
