About Me

I am a 35-year-old creative professional with a strong foundation in design and a passion for storytelling through video. My journey began at the Fine Arts High School in Bydgoszcz (2006-2010), where I developed a love for visual arts. I later earned a bachelor’s degree in Interior Architecture from the University of Technology and Life Sciences in Bydgoszcz (2011-2015), enriched by a transformative year at the University of Alghero in Sardinia through the Erasmus program (2013-2014). Currently, I completed my master’s degree in Economics at Kuyavian-Pomeranian University in Bydgoszcz (2021-2023).

My career pivot from gaming to graphic design was inspired by a desire to create meaningful content. My main occupation now revolves around crafting films using Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, where I specialize in video editing and animation. This work allows me to blend technical precision with creative flair, delivering projects that resonate with audiences and meet client needs.

Beyond my professional life, I am a traveler, constantly seeking new cultures and experiences—follow my journeys here. Gaming is another passion, and I enjoy building my collection, which you can explore here. I’m also dedicated to learning Italian, adding to my language skills that include English (B2) and Spanish (B1), while Polish remains my native tongue (C2). Additionally, I have a growing interest in artificial intelligence (AI), exploring its potential in creative design and video production.

In my downtime, I unwind with retro consoles and immerse myself in historical and documentary books. I’m not much for TV series but love a good cinema trip. My interests also extend to automotive design, geopolitics, the history of Bydgoszcz, geographical discoveries, and geography itself, fueling my curiosity and inspiring my creative work.
