About me
Born 1983.
Hooked in the late 90’s:
Never thought about it, but I guess Winamp was my gateway, too. 97/98-ish.. Photoshop 6.0, I think. Lens flares, Different clouds – skin game on fleek. https://t.co/oiVFiYZh8K

Attended formal school in 2000, as a Media Graphics Artist. It sucked. I left.
I consider myself 95% self-taught.
My lastname is pronounced [Klens-Kee-Tayn-Geh].
Working professionally with digital design and development since 2006
Self-employed since 2012.
He/Him.
That silly ring on my finger was given to me twenty years ago. It has a name, and it holds the combined total of all my powers. You will pry it from my dead, cold hands.
Work
For work, I do client services and venture collaborations as the company owner of digital product studio, Pilot.
Co-founded in 2015, we got started doing client work, while building ventures on the side. A couple of which we’ve managed to bring to acquisition 🎉
I acquired my co-founder’s stake back in 2020, making Pilot wholly owned by yours truly.
New ventures are on the horizon — have a look at my portfolio.

Here’s where my head is at when I focus:
