[3][1] Pall worked as a top manager in the electronics and consulting industry, but took up bonsai as a hobby in 1980.
[5] Despite his respect and prestige in the bonsai world, however, Pall considers himself an amateur and does not aim for commercial success; rather, he styles trees and maintains his garden for his own enjoyment.
[3][1] Pall is known for his naturalistic style, which deviates from traditional practices of bonsai development.
[nb 1][3][1][6] One such species is the oriental hornbeam, which Pall sources from Croatia.
[3][1][8] He has also long been active in the online bonsai community, participating in various forums.
