Together with my professor, I decided to focus on abstract expressionism for my Master exams while continuing to paint and work as an illustrator.
A new trend to use computer graphics threatened to dry up my source of income as an illustrator. This was not my creative path of choice so I freelance in the marketing and sales field.
Six years later I accepted an inspiring offer to join Ogilvy & Mather, one of the top global corporations specialising in communications. This was a completely new world for me that I greatly enjoyed exploring while maintaining a painting studio first in Cologne, then Frankfurt, and finally London.
About 15 years on and after a career in management, I started my latest path training to become a business coach in 2004.
