About me
I am a Berlin-based, investigative journalist for print media and radio, in-depth researcher and a fiction writer.
My customers are German and international media outlets, corporate entities like film production companies or NGOs like Global Witness (UK) or Avaaz (US).
I am available for public speaking about investigative journalism and media, and enjoy the occasional moderation of a panel discussion.
Personally, I strongly believe in cultivating kindness and courage.
I love divers and high-profile work, meeting inspiring and daring people through my investigative projects as well as creating new “worlds” through fiction. My artwork encompasses libretti for adults and I am working on novels for children and young adults (my first opera “Fuck the Facts” premiered in September 2017 at the Neuköllner Oper in Berlin).
I also love to spend time meditating and on the yoga mat, walking in nature with my dog, spending time with my daughter, especially at the seaside, on the horseback or baking a vegan triple chocolate cake.

Articles
Interview With Gay Theologian David Berger/ SPIEGEL ONLINE International November 2010
The Hidden Wealth of the Catholic Church/ SPIEGEL ONLINE International June 2010
I was in the happy situation being able to “ambush” the Swedish beststelling author Mr. Henning Mankell on the street in front of Babylon Cinema (in Berlin), and with his very spontenous and kind agreement to interview him for The Times (London) about the Israelian attack on the flotilla end of May.
As the TIMES articles need to be payed for now, please excuse that I cannot provide you with a copy of the interview. However you can look it up yourself, if you are interested! The article was published June 5, 2010.

Articles in Icelandic:
Ah, well, and two articles have been kindly translated by Karl Böndal into Icelandic for the Morgunbladid, where I was allowed to stay in spring 2012 (a great experience!), due to a bursary. (On the page “Artikel” on this blog, I have published the German manuscripts of both texts.)
– So for Icelandic readers :), have a look here:
