Nils studied film directing in the same city where he was born. Munich. He loves to tell all kinds of stories ranging from 10 seconds to 120 minutes, and he treats each one of them as if they were his own children (which they are in some way). For him, the most important qualities in a good story are: entertainment, astonishing surprises, deep characters and well – good storytelling.

He is working for commercial clients such as Pringles, Huawei, Siemens and E.ON. His commercials have been honored at several award shows, including at the ADC Germany, the New York Festival Advertising Awards and the Golden Award of Montreux. Alongside his work as a commercial director, he writes and directs short and feature film projects that have been part of several renowned film festivals around the world, such as the Hof International Film Festival.
