Hello, my name is Petra
I am a german storyboard artist with a passion for crime podcasts, comic festivals and a family drama in a galaxy far far away.
I studied Graphic Design and worked in animation ever since I graduated in 2012. Storytelling is really where my heart is and my education in design helps me to make my scenes well structured and provident, with a keen eye for composition.I am self-motivated and I like learning new things, surrounded by creative people.
For inquiries, please contact me via the contact form or e-mail.
Thanks for stopping by!
