As "Studio Ranokel", I am specialised in communicating complex matters in a charming and playful way.
Born in 1982 in Northern Germany, I grew up among books, art and mathematicians. My CV looks much twistier than my life really was. Today I live in Hamburg and run "Studio Ranokel" - a studio for illustration and storytelling specialised in communicating complex matters in a charming and playful way.
