About Me

Bio / About me

I’m a web enthusiast, tech innovation follower, and DJ! I am working hard on building up OverAce with many creative solutions. I try to manage this, while completing my high school degree at the Austrian School Budapest.

Cleveland is my home, but I’ve been living across Europe for most of my life. Currently in Budapest, Hungary.

How I spend my time

I spend my time in many different, I’m trying to find my place while exploring many different things and making the best of them.

What got me here

I’ve grown up with the internet, I use it to teach me, entertain me and connect with the rest of the world.

The science behind the web and it’s efficiency has always fascinated me, driven me to new ideas, opened up many opportunities for me, which I will be forever thankful for.

Making the internet work for you with all of it’s resources is just phenomenal.

I soon started helping businesses grow, have a better usage of the web, have made me dive into web design and many open-source platforms. Since then web marketing and creative directing have been the closest to me. I started out as a young freelancer, creating simple websites for clients, while learning all other aspects of web marketing.

In 2014, I decided to establish my own marketing agency, with the premiere focus on parties. The situation in Hungary was horrible in my eyes and something had to be done. As being a DJ/Producer in my spare time, it terrified me, what was going in the country I’m living in. So I gathered a team, who shares similar visions to create something people will find helpful and better than anything else they are used to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to meet with open-minded people, make more friends and enjoy life more!

Interests

I've grown up using the computer and the internet quite bit, I've found it incredibly useful so far.

My two favorite things to do is implementing new technologies for businesses and DJing (which is still do only as hobby).

I've was a digital freelancer for a couple years, before creating my Digital Marketing Agency, which focuses growth marketing and implementation of information technologies.

  • design
  • technology
  • traveling
  • music
  • business
  • djing
  • entrepeneurship

Music, Movies, and Books

This one is hard.

I basically love any genre of quality music.
Starting from classical, jazz, pop, rap.
All the way to my main genre EDM (Electronic Dance Music). But by this I mostly think of trap & bass music (future bass & melodic dubstep), which I mostly DJ with.

I don't watch too many movies anymore. There's just not enough time for it. Although I watch a few TV shows. My favorite ones are: Breaking Bad, Silicon Valley, Narcos, Mad Men.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't really decide what to list here.

I am most proud of finding my passion at a really young age, which allowed me to develop myself in the field, while still being in High School. Ever since I've started freelancing, I've noticed I want to pursue the journey of entrepreneurship and work for myself and one-day also be able to hire more and more people. As of now, we are a group of freelancers & uni students, who are working on very exciting projects.
I'm the co-founder of a project that we're doing together with a Hungarian non-profit, which educates high school students about the proper use of the internet, personal development & career readiness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've helped quite a few people with getting started with educating themselves in the space of Digital Marketing and the basics of how e-Learning can be super helpful.
Others tell me, that I have a very logical thinking style, which I comes for my passion of efficiency and process improvement.
I'm extremely open-minded and happy to share whatever I think can be interesting for the other person. I feel great when I see that I can be helpful to someones life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I traveled a lot as a kid with my parents.
I was born in the USA, but have mostly lived in Europe.

But deep-down I'm still quite influenced by the American culture, but have also adjusted to the European culture in the last 15 years.
