Over the years, I gained experience through set-design project as well as large-scale projects, overseeing scenography and the end-to-end production process – from design concept, team leading to construction. I love the versatility of scenography as a communication tool and I do not limit myself to just one field of expertise. I’m open to projects and collaborations across Europe.

With a background rooted in the management and a passion for creative work, I've always been driven to blend the worlds of design and production.
After finishing my B.A. in Media Management with focus on Music Management, I gained valuable experience in the music industry. In 2022, I completed my second B.A. in Object and Spatial Design and continued with the M.A. in Scenographic Design and Communication at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Dortmund.
My skills in both management and design allows me to merge strategic thinking with creative expression. From concept to realisation, my production work brings creative visions to life through thoughtful and immersive spatial transformations.
Since then, I have been working on feminist and socially relevant topics, creating and producing scenographic design projects in the form of exhibitions, stages, sets and installations.
