I was born in 1986 - Miskolc, Hungary. My first experience with photography was at the age of 15 during an art workshop in Szerencs. This is where I met with Hungarian painter János Fajó. This meeting made a great impression on me and motivated me to pursue further art studies. After graduating from high school, I enrolled at the University of West-Hungary, Institute of Applied Arts. During this period, I was awarded the Sirius scholarship and moved to Denmark for one year where I had the opportunity to study archaical photography and learned about cyanotype, ambrotype, bromoil and liquid emulsion processes under the guidance of danish photographer Emil Schildt.
After graduating from The University of West Hungary with a major in Packaging Design in 2010, I worked for two digital media companies and a commercial agency (Solid Studio, Brick Visual and Kirowski Isobar) out of Budapest until 2014. Since then I have worked with different clients as a Freelance Creative, in the field of Motion Graphics, Graphic Design, Video and Photography. Besides freelance work I’m continuously uploading to the bigger stock photography and footage websites. As a person I’m incredibly enthusiastic and love working with passionate people who share my commitment to conceptual thinking and constant improvement. I love to see media as it affects our perception with a clear visual language, has influences on our everyday life with engaging interactions, meaningful moments and fun.

In 2009 I became a member of the Studio of Young Photographers in Budapest, my work was shown during several group exhibitions. In 2016 one of my works was exhibited at the Soundscape exhibition at Robert Capa Contemporary Photography Center in Budapest. After this exhibition I started to explore the relationship between visual and audio-based mediums. For a deeper investigation in the same subject, in 2017 I began studying photography MA at the University of Kaposvár. For several years now I have been exploring the relation between the technical image and the sounds surounds us. Many of my Fine Art works consists of moving images, I also deal a lot with classical photography, particularly with photograms. My Fine Art work is characterized by experimenting with different techniques and methods, the juxtaposing of different elements. My recent diploma work constituted of two parts, my thesis paper which was dealing with the portrayal of silence in photography and my practical work, Silence, which was examining the difficulties of finding a silent point in a modern urban centrum point.
After graduating in June, 2019 I moved to Stockholm, where I currently live and work as a Freelance Creative. I truly believe that motion content captures customers' attention more that's why I mainly work as a Motion Designer recently. Creating and producing commercial and applied arts are as important for me as finding my own voice in the Fine Art field. Every project is a new journey. I love collaboration - let's connect.​​​​​​​
