A little bit about me
I was born in Brussels. I studied at the European School of Brussels (primary and secondary education) and at Kingston University (UK) (higher education), where I obtained a bachelor’s (Media and Cultural Studies) and a master’s degree (Digital Media).
After almost 10 years of working experience into the music business and the media, I have specialised as a freelancer in the digital media sector, which was also the main subject of my master’s degree.
I have excellent knowledge of three European languages: Greek (mother tongue), French and English, as well as a basic knowledge of German.

Why I love what I do
I created my first video around 2005. It was from some personal material I had gathered from school along with my friends when we were younger. Back then, without knowing so much what i was doing, I managed to set up a short videoclip with some of the highlights of our teen experience when we were a lot younger and with less of a brain 😛
I can still remember quite clearly my emotions while I was making it. Cutting the scenes, placing them in the correct order… It felt priceless! But the best part was when we sat down to watch the video.
From that day I realized how powerful watching a video can be to the human brain, how much it can touch us deep inside, in what ways it can make us feel happy, emotional, angry, bring back memories, make us think, laugh, cry, dance, sing or even motivate us, give us courage and so on and so on…
For all the above reasons, I always try to bring moving images together and mix them well with sound, because if I manage to find the correct recipe for this, I would have reached my goal: create emotions to the viewer!!
So, for me, this is the art of video making and this is why I love doing it so much…
