He graduated as a designer from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in 2014, and is currently a student at its Doctoral School. Most of his work is focusing on social equality and social design, and on the compensation of disadvantage. Several of his projects explore autism as a social phenomenon through contemporary design. For the last 10 years, he has run a social workshop in Miskolc aiming to provide disabled personswith work, community and opportunity (maacraft.org). In addition to design, he is involved in research and theoretical concepts, and builds social brands such as the Perceptual Thinkers project. In 2017 he received the Design Management Award and the Hungarian Design Award, and in 2020 the Civil Award.
