Profile

After training as a photographer, I started my first jobs in the editorial sector.

A few years later and having passed a master's examination at the Hamburg Academy of Photography, I began studying photo engineering in Cologne. However, the basic studies were enough for me to realize that I would not become an engineer.

So I swapped my university education for a position as a trainer at a university (photography at the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences). I also completed a year of further training in journalism and moved into art buying and editing for many years.

Stations as Head Of Art Buying at Mutabor, Meta Design and Media Consulta alternated with engagements as a freelance image and text editor for print media (Stern, ZEIT Wissen, Monopol, Madame), film and television (SAT1, Brainpool), and NGOs and associations (Reporters Without Borders, Federal Wind Energy Association).
