I dabbled in web and graphic design at a very young age. I still remember what I first did when my parents bought me a personal computer - I installed Photoshop right away. I was spending all of my free time messing around with it, creating stuff, exploring the unknown. I became totally absorbed. Then I realised I needed distraction from time to time - another hobby.
I started training volleyball in the city club. I trained hard, I became really good. For the five years of training and participating in many tournaments, we won plenty of medals. The most valuable thing, however, were not the trophies we won, but the lesson we learnt - you always have to give 100 percent, no matter what you engage with. I am still following this principle, regardless if I am working on a project or just cleaning the kitchen.
When I quit playing volleyball to continue my education I became even more obsessed with design. It became more than just a hobby for me, it became my passion. I also realised that a web designer should know how to inspirit his concepts, so I started learning html 5, css 3 and jquery, and it's total fun. I guess it's the other thing that makes me tick.
