As a lover of design and all things digital, Jef Kalil recalls a specific moment that sparked his passion for online media: watching the VT100 animation “Bambi vs. Godzilla” at Digital Equipment Corporation when he was just 8 years old.

Later on in his life, he followed his heart and pursued an Architecture and Design career in Boston which led him to study abroad in Germany. There, he discovered the Bauhaus and the real meaning of “less is more” which may have very well helped in establishing a second passion of his – to deliver content in 140 characters or less.

Now, Jef is the Social Media Marketing Manager of the pioneering online auction-house and startup, Auctionata, where he combines his love for design with technology on a daily basis. His weekly paper, the Antiques & Antiquities Roundup caught our attention and we wanted to learn more!
