About

I'm a filmmaker and creative director from Aarau, Switzerland.


I'm a filmmaker and creative director based in Aarau, Switzerland. I make commercial films, brand videos and cinematic social campaigns for brands that care about how their story looks, feels and moves. Everything I do is built around visual direction, pacing and atmosphere.

It started with a camera and way too many YouTube travel films.

After a trip to Finland, filmmaking stopped feeling like something distant and became something I wanted to do myself. I came back home and started filming everything I could. Travel clips, small edits, random ideas and eventually my first real client project for a local food truck.

That was the first moment it felt serious. People genuinely wanted the work I loved creating.

Since then, filmmaking became less about just documenting things and more about making ordinary moments feel cinematic. Movement, framing, sound, pacing and atmosphere. Turning simple ideas into something people actually want to watch.

Today I work with brands across Switzerland and Europe, creating commercial films, brand videos and social campaigns together with a small collective of creatives and filmmakers I enjoy working with. See the full service range.
