This is the place where I try to promote myself, right? Well...
I started programming when I was 9, moved away from it towards graphics, design and front-end dev at 13. When my life was all about street dance I started experimenting with photography and video, which was around 2010. I went all-in in 2015 and stuck with videography and filmmaking up until now.
Currently, I am looking for a new challenge. I love working on complex projects. I am used to leading teams of people and taking on responsibility. I don't hold a university degree – most of what I know I learned by reading and executing.
One more thing – I do have a dog named Mike and he would love to come to work with me sometimes. I am rather introverted and it takes me some time to open up to people – Mike makes connecting much easier.

I started producing on my own already in 2013, but it wasn't until 2015 when I decided to found Framework Studio. My vision was to build a small, agile production focused on long-term content, education and author's projects.
During the years we have worked with companies such as STRV, PwC, Nevýchova, Czechitas, Konica Minolta, Jetsurf and others. Currently, we are focusing almost exclusively on online education and developing our own TV shows.

Amos Academy is our author's project. We wanted to bring education from the best in the field to their fans and viewers at a reasonable price while having exceptional visuals.
