just call me nik.
Born in 1989 in the vibrant heart of Hamburg, Altona, I'm Nordish by nature—a creative multitasker, a dedicated nerd, and a semi-pro photographer and founder of my own Independent label.
I've been called quirky, headstrong, a problem solver, or just an all-around creative who can single-handedly own a project if needed, operating like a one-man agency. Honestly, I love the control this offers but much prefer collaborative teamwork, spitballing ideas and solutions with easygoing individuals without all the elbow mentality, tunnel vision or gatekeeping. Even though I am an seasoned art director, I would actually categorize myself as a creative generalist, with a strong focus on concept developement and production, always eager to work closely with directors and DP's to bring my concepts and ideas to life, and if able be part of the production itself as a photographer. Without my wife or kid, I would probably embrace my workaholic tendencies way to intensely as I really really love my job and work as a creative, but thanks to them, I've found a pretty good balance in life. Being a dad, a partner and still deliver ideas on a deadline. I could easily tell you so much more – but how about you just contact me, and we talk directly over what you might need me for.
Because, wether in my personal or professional life, I have a constant drive to deep dive into anything that captures my interest and sets my ADHD-brain buzzing with excitement.
Here are 13 additional things to know about me that are more or less totally irrelevant, but are great conversation starters.
I am a state-approved and trained Kindergarden teacher.
My granddad made his own fruit wine, stored in an air raid shelter.
I've collected almost 50k pins on Pinterest , and counting.
My desktop is the most organized thing – like in my life.
I'm happily married to the same woman twice.
I might have a slight Kickstarter problem... (according to my wife)
My son is named after a character from the Arthurian legend.
I spend more time in presentation decks than in any other program.
You could describe me as a high-functioning ADHD person.
Absolutely hate and cannot sit cross-legged.
Huge anime and fantasy nerd.
I am exactly 800 years younger than the Hamburg Harbor.
The only thing with four wheels i am allowed to ride is my skateboard.
