About
It is traditionally expected that one should write their bio in the third person—but not all traditions need to be upheld. Long intro short: I am going to speak in the first person. You may be wondering where the idea of "Skyhawk" came from. It is pretty simple: it is my name. Granted, it’s my middle name, but legally speaking, it still counts.
I grew up in the beautiful Napa Valley—but please do not ask me about wine; chances are I will not know. I moved to Santa Rosa to attend the Junior College—go Bear Cubs! There, I earned an associate degree in Humanities. After that, I transferred down to sunny Central California to attend California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Graphic Communication.
That is when I decided to move across the pond to Germany. I settled down in Berlin, but not before earning my master's degree in Media Art and Design from the Bauhaus University in Weimar. Since then, I have been working happily as a media designer.
