## About

Studied architecture and ended up building worlds instead: characters, comics and games, and lately the websites they live on.

Today I’m creative director at [Digistore24](https://www.digistore24.com), based in Málaga. Before that I led the art on Space District Daedalus, designed characters for Scopely, illustrated books for authors and publishers, and kept drawing [Čupkavi problemi](https://www.instagram.com/cupkaviproblemi/), which has made it onto gallery walls three times so far. [Bosana](https://bosanasvijet.com), my own world, is still growing.

Off the clock: tango, a 1st Dan in jujitsu, and a D&D table where I get to decide what the dragon does.
