I became fascinated with design as early as at the age of 17. Being the straightforward and naive person I was, this circumstance catapulted into becoming self-employed. Since that time, I have delivered my services to several thousands of customers, published several magazines of my own via my own publishing company and, on top of that, supported hundreds of people to find permanent employment as an adviser in adult education. I have been following Kickstarter since the beginning of 2009 with the intention to launch a project myself some time in the future. By designing the FOCX Everyday Wallet (my first Kickstarter campaign) I have fulfilled a personal dream of mine, even though it was not easy – it really wasn’t. The satisfaction I feel shows me that I have made the right decision and that I will keep on following this path for a long time to come.
