Vita
About me
I was born in Cologne, half German, half Korean, and stood in front of a camera for the first time at twelve — and haven't really stopped since. First my own YouTube videos, then TV production, editing, acting, eventually developing series and feature concepts for Netflix and Amazon. In parallel I always cared how things work underneath — so I studied computer science. Not to write code all day, but to understand systems and build them.
Then came a phase where I tried a lot and burned a fair bit too: a few years between Thailand and home, Shopify stores, an Instagram channel that grew organically past 400,000 followers, a Muay Thai documentary. Learned a lot, paid plenty of tuition. And then something happened with AI that pulled it all together: media and computer science, the two things I can do, suddenly make sense together. What used to take me weeks now takes days — and comes out better.
Right now I'm also delivering for Flaschenpost on the side and building the rest piece by piece. That's fine. I know I'm not where I want to be yet — but I know where I'm going. Until then I learn everywhere, help where I can, work simply and directly, and aim for things that look not just good but really good. If the project is cool, I'm in.
