just call me nik.
Born in 1989 in the vibrant heart of Hamburg, Altona, I'm Nordish by nature—a creative multitasker, a dedicated nerd, and a semi-pro photographer. Whether in my personal or professional life, I have a strong penchant for anything that captures my interest and sets my ADHD-brain buzzing with excitement.
I've been called quirky, headstrong, a problem solver, or just an all-around creative who can single-handedly own a project if needed, operating like a one-man agency. Honestly, I love the control this offers but much prefer collaborative teamwork, spitballing ideas and solutions with easygoing individuals without all the elbow mentality, tunnel vision or gatekeeping. Even though I am an art director by trade, i love the concept and development phase of a project way more than the actual layout and execution—the only exception to this rule being actual productions, those i love to pieces. Working closely with directors and DP's to bring my concepts and ideas to life, and if allowed be part of the production unit itself as a secondary shooter. Without my wife or kid, I would probably embrace my workaholic tendencies way to intensely as I really really love my job and work as a creative, but thanks to them, I've found a pretty good balance in life. Being a dad, a partner and still deliver ideas on a deadline. I could easily tell you so much more – but how about you just contact me, and we talk directly over what you might need me for.
Instead of more words and blah-blahs, here are 13 things to know about me that are more or less totally irrelevant.
I used to work as a kindergarten teacher for 2 years.
My granddad made his own fruit wine, stored in an air raid shelter.
I've collected almost 50k pins on Pinterest , and counting.
My desktop is the most organized thing – like in my life.
I'm happily married to the same woman twice.
I might have a slight Kickstarter problem... (according to my wife)
My son is named after a character from the Arthurian legend.
I spend more time in presentation decks than in any other program.
You could describe me as a high-functioning ADHD person.
I absolutely hate and cannot sit cross-legged.
I easily pick up new skills, except for languages.
If possible, I prefer to work in an english speaking enviroment.
13 is my lucky number.
