Hi, I'm Felix.
Designer, Berliner, Dad
Me in Rome, 2019
Background
Born in '85, grown up in the '90s, I spent a huge chunk of my childhood drawing comics, building LEGO, and daydreaming my way through classes at school. As I got older, I found a passion for creating things on the computer, like designing multiplayer maps for Half-Life, messing around with PowerPoint transitions, and getting crafty with FrontPage whipping up my first websites.
Coming of age, I started designing promotional materials for music events (thanks to a cracked version of Photoshop). I co-founded a collective for local youth culture and found myself in charge of all things visual.
Those years taught me a lot about branding, marketing, design, and web development. I connected with like-minded and landed an internship at SoundCloud back in 2010. From there, I turned my passion into a profession.
Beyond work
I've been passionate about soccer my entire life, playing for various teams over the years. During my youth, I played for 1. FC Union Berlin and got picked for the Berlin Selection until ongoing injuries put an end to my competitive ambitions. These days, I play on an amateur team in Berlin.
When I have some free time, I enjoy diving into story-driven video games. Music is another constant in my life—I frequently listen to it and curate my top picks into yearly playlists on Spotify. I also dabble in photography, occasionally sharing my shots on VSCO or Instagram.
In 2020, I embarked on the most rewarding journey of all: becoming a dad to a wonderful little girl.
