I’m a 31 year old Brit who originally trained as an Acoustic Engineer and I’ve been working in the field of psychoacoustics and audiology for several years. In 2008 I started to focus on my passion for the visual arts, first studying classical drawing and then completing the BA in Character Animation in Viborg, Denmark. In my spare time I’m practicing my illustration skills – there’s so much I want to learn! My other passion is music and I play regularly with the bands Vektormusik and Crystal Sky Butterfly.
