Being «just» one thing never was a real option for me. I simply
wonder too much and therefore find fulfillment in various fields of activity.
So I turned my things into my biggest asset: Broadness.
Today I combine political and social work with filmmaking,
editorial and business. Promoting all of it together is my goal.
Well, let me make your things into my thing...
