Short CV
 
From Frebruary 2008 until June 2010 I worked first as a corporate designer, then as a creative director for Unimall GmbH in Berlin (Germany).
When I joined the company, there was little branding visable in the communication, so I started to develop visual branding and guidelines while leading the graphics department in the ongoing creation and development of product- and offer-campaigns in cooperation with the product managers in house. We developed cross media brand- and product campaigns for manufactures like Apple, Adobe, Microsoft, Wacom and many others.
 
I left Unimall in July 2010 to follow my family to Budapest, Hungary and work as a freelance art director and designer. I am working for clients in Germany and Hungary.


I started my career in the advertising company in Goettingen (Germany) where I used to clean when I was 16 years old. While working I graduated in 1998 as 'Kommunikationswirtin' (government examination in communication management).
 
In the same year I got a place at the School of Art at the University of Kassel for Visual Communications. I continued working freelance while studying.
In 2002 I went to Melbourne, Australia to enroll for 'study abroad' in the course 'electronic design and interactive media' at the RMIT University followed by 5 months travelling and working around Australia while preparing my exam.
 
I graduated in Visual Communications when I came back from Australia in 2003 and moved to England, where I worked as a graphic designer for Herringbone Ltd. in Surrey for 3 years before moving to Berlin.

Of course I am working with the latest (CS5) version of the Adobe Creative Suite and the Microsoft Office Programs.
