Diploma után keresztül-kasul utazta Európát, számos ügynökségnél dolgozott, megfordult Barcelonában, Londonban és Amsterdamban is.
És itt egy nem rég készült interjú Conor Croninnal, szimpatikus:

Looking forward to Sonar

Tell us something people don’t know about you…
I like to spoon my pillow

Of course especially my erasmus at Willem de Kooning Academie, Rotterdam in Netherlands, it was the first time I was introduced to Mainland Europe Design & typographic treatment. Moreover education should never end, I would like to study a Masters in typography some time in the future.

Like Andy Warhol said, “I never read. I just look at pictures.”
