About Me

Hi, I am Jette, 22 years old, and alongside studying at HfG Schwaebisch Gmuend, I am, let’s call it, an all-rounder.

I love exploring new things, especially creative work — of course designing, but also drawing, , acting, writing, and simply letting my creativity take over when I express myself. I enjoy challenging myself with new ideas and, at times, I can be a bit of a perfectionist. I also genuinely enjoy social situations, from grabbing a coffee and brainstorming crazy ideas to doing sports together or just diving into something that feels interesting and fun. I’d say I’m easy to work with, comfortable in conversations, and confident in group settings. I’m always excited to turn a creative idea into reality.
