About

Since 2006, I'm gathering experience in tv and cinema productions, fiction and documentary, theatre productions, exhibitions, and marketing campaigns. My portfolio includes roles as set manager and production manager, as well as event management for international events like the European Film Market of Berlinale and Nordic Film Days Lübeck.

Whether it's booking and coordinating crew, artist management, developing 360° virtual tours for museums, founding and teaching movie workshops for young adults, or launching a music and culture event collective — my strength lies in bringing all the threads together: creatively, humanely, technically, and financially.

I combine creativity with project management and pair content vision with technical understanding. I'm often called a versatile Swiss Pocket Knife, not only when it comes to media or event projects.
Once something catches my eye, I dive in with all my passion and skills to make it happen.
