One of the toughest things in life is to describe yourself. Well, at least that's the case for me... But I'll give it a shot.

I was born in 84' in Lesvos, Greece. From a young age, I knew that I would be involved in creative matters throughout the course of my life.

Professionally, I currently work as a Senior Web Designer and Team Leader at Newsphone Hellas SA, involved, among others, in web, mobile and mobile app designs for various platforms.

A main project I am currently involved is Mr. E Travel Blog. Travelling, writing and photography are all major parts of my life that I wanted to combine.

One of the highlights of my career was the publication of BURST Magazine. It was a music/entertainment, digital magazine that ran for 24 issues between January 2013 and March 2015, with huge names of music and cinema being featured on its cover. My involvement ranged from the design to foreign artist PR.

Life is not all about work. When I have the opportunity of traveling, I simply pack and go, seeking new adventures and interacting with different cultures. Many times I have been asked if I would give up everything to travel the world... As you probably can imagine, the answer is yes!

Easy going and humorous are two things that characterise me. I am always seeking for new challenges and brain teasers that help myself evolve.

If you feel like it, contact me and say hello :)
