Tobias was born 1985 in Marburg an der Lahn, Germany. After watching through the whole library of his local video store as a young teenager, he quickly realized that the moving picture business is the only business he wants to be part of on a professional level.

He studied Media Technology (B.Eng.) and Media Computer Science (M.Sc.) at the University of Applied Sciences Düsseldorf. During this time he started working as a Videographer, Editor, Digital Image Technician and Compositing Artist on various commercial and feature film productions. In 2009, he had the pleasure to see his name in the rolling credits of a feature film for the first time as a Compositing Artist.
