I was born in Vienna, Austria in 1993. From when I was one year old, I split time between rural Austria and Vero Beach, Florida, USA until graduating from high school in both countries. After completing my mandatory military service in Austria, I studied printmaking at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and received a Master of Arts Degree in 2017. While completing the 3 year painting program at the Florence Academy of Art, I was awarded a work study scholarship to teach and remained at the school for a term as a graduate in residence, which is currently coming to an end.
