hey, it’s me

great to see you here. i’m maik and you’re probably keen to know who i am. well the best way would be to meet in person but i’ll try my best.

i was born in berlin and raised in beautiful Weißensee. i have
a really strong relationship to this city, not only because my family and friends are here. but also because i love the rush and active vibe around the streets.

i completed my Abitur and stayed here for my Bachelor
of Arts. but as much as i love to be here i also need to
be somewhere else from time to time. experience something unknown and out of my comfortzone.

speaking of comfortzone. i’m definitly not shy speaking in front of people or having another akward small-talk in the elevator. but i also need to speak up for my principles and reflect on my priviliges as a cis-male person.
I’m deeply connected to the music scene in Germany and
constantly volunteer at music-festivals and in politics.

all in all i might not fill in the average graphic designer cliché but i think i’m a pretty nice guy and great to work with.


PS
…this sounds like a dating-app intro :)
