Born in 1987 and raised in the small canton of Glarus, films have been his main interest since he was a little boy. With his friends he shot his first short film with a VHS camcorder.
Today he lives in Zurich and is studying for a master's degree in camera at the Zurich University of the Arts. In 2015 he completed his bachelor's degree in visual communication with a focus on audiovisual media. He has been working as a freelance filmmaker since 2010, initially mainly as a lighting technician and camera assistant, and later increasingly as a cameraman.
