Thanks to my parents, I knew about the profession of design at a quiet young age and proceeded in this direction since I was 12, doing graphics at the computer and designing fonts in my school books. Doing group work in school, my group did not always have the best content to present but it always had the nicest poster to look at. My working sheets always looked like they were printed and the worst thing a teacher could do is add another information on the panel board which &#8220;ruined&#8221; my aethetics.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>Starting university, I dreamed about a career in the cultural sector, creating printing campaigns for social or political movements to fulfill my urge to use my profession for something meaningful. Then, in 2009, I went to Finnland to study for a semester and learned about sustainability which lead me on the path I still find myself today.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>I am passionate about travelling and connecting with different kinds of people. Until now, I have stepped on the ground of 33 countries and I am not getting tired of making plans to extend this list. Travelling on my own taught me to hear my inner voice and to be brave enough to follow it. And it taught me that integrity, hospitality and true authentic kindness are not linked to financial income, social class, skin color, gender, religion or cultural background.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>My favorite compliments I ever got was that I was truly authentic, had a smart sense of humor and belonged to the kind of women who get more and more beautiful the older they get.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>I like dancing, movies and soundtrack music. I also like long walks in nature and became passionate about diving. I like the sound of drums\u00a0 and I like to be taught how things work by my nephews. In my dreams I usually take long walks with my ancestors, waltz with a grizzly bear to circus music or find myself back in High School having forgotten my homework in german class and suddenly discovering I am not wearing pants.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;15773&#8243; border_color=&#8221;grey&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;right&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; parallax_content_width=&#8221;in_grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; angled_section_position=&#8221;both&#8221; angled_section_direction=&#8221;from_left_to_right&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;80&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;70&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text] Tilla Theiss [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text] 1986 [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Born in Seeheim-Jugenheim, Germany [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text] 2005 [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] High School Graduation (Abitur) at the Justus Liebig School Darmstadt [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10&#8243; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text] 2011 [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Master of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15798"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15798"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15798\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15919,"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15798\/revisions\/15919"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.tillatheiss.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
