DePaul University
Acting Up For Social Change
    2011-2012 Autumn
I was born here…


                                At 24, I relocated:



         South Africa
Pretoria : The Jacaranda City



                                Namibia (South-West Africa)
                                Windhoek : The Windy City
I went from:
SAP Riot Squad… to hair stylist, waiter, and finally…
video editor/camera operator/audio designer.




 1988 – 2008 : A life in the day of me
As video editor, I worked full time…




  Namibian
  Broadcast                          One Africa Television
                     Trustco
 Corporation         Holdings


…yet, I did my best work
as a freelance editor for
    Ombetja Yehinga
  Organization (OYO),
   an HIV-Awareness
 Non-Profit in Namibia.
                                Ombetja Yehinga Organization
But there is another sound to the story: Music.




      1992-1997
     Eternal Reign

                             1997-2005
                             Arcana XXII
                                            1997-2008
                                             Gazoline

1988 – 2008 : A life in the day of me
And finally USA




                      Our Wedding Day

When I moved here for my Romanian-         Our inspired student
American Simona and we got married,
I had to make a new career move due to a
flooded media market. It was going to be
Information Technology.
I am not really and activist. I do my thing,
adding creativity and spice to the ideas
and projects of my clients. But it is this
creativity that is my life-long passion.

And it is with creativity in mind that I study for
a degree in IT, focusing on Database-, and
Web design and development.

I completed my first year at another university,
and joined DePaul to continue my journey of
education, while working for a security company as a shift
supervisor.
