I've worked as a freelancer for the french-german TV channel ARTE, CBS and the BBC. Recently I've completed my first independent documentary. POWER is a short doc on violence against women in India, it has won awards at international film festivals. Before working as a freelancer I trained at City University for broadcast journalism. I've published stories in FocusOnline, Naked Punch Magazine, Deutsche Welle and I was an online editor for the Magazine Digital-Life-Design. Most of all I love working independently, being on a shoot and producing stories. Having worked in India and Pakistan several times between 2010 and 2014, I'm aware of what it takes to research and produce stories in adverse places. My love for traveling brought me to journalism and I still see it as part of the attraction. It allows me to understand the world by experiencing it and making complex stories accessible to a wider audience. I'm also program coordinator at the Dart Centre for Journalism and Trauma.
