He studied History and English at Greifswald University and Photography at the innovative Hasso-Plattner-Institut, Design Thinking School and City University of New York. He has developed a singular, creative, and exciting approach to teaching digital photography that equips students with an understanding of the fundamental principles of digital technology and perceptual psychology. This foundation enables students to begin thinking like professional photographers and to conceive and arrange their images – whether landscape, portrait, still life, or action – with clarity and purpose.
