John is building a career for himself in multimedia with the goal of producing creative content, advertisment and promotional material. On top of this he manages to write all the music and organise the ins and outs of 2 musical acts, one being "Hair metal" the other being what he describes as "Disco Space Rock." Finding the time to juggle such time consuming projects and find a healthy work to life balance isn't an easy feat. We chat to him about how he stays motivated and prevents himself from burning out creativity.
