    About

    On one hand, I’m an author, screenwriter and story consultant with big love for independent cinema, literature and analogue photography.

    The other side of me keeps following strange, exciting sparks, to find out, where they lead.

    Amongst others, they have guided me me into the realms of Psychological Astrology, Internal Family Systems, Mythology, Archetypal Studies, Podcasting, Shamanism, plant medicine, Tantra or Embodiment Practices.

    As a multipassionate and endlessly curious human being, my work draws from all of these worlds, but keeps returning to one question: What happens when we finally stop abandoning our truth?

For as long as can I remember, I’ve been fascinated by stories.

The ones we tell, the ones we live by, the ones we inherit or outgrow and the ones that quietly wait for us on the other side of a crisis, a heartbreak, a creative endeavor or a reinvention.

Some people come to me because they want to work on their writing. Others, because they’re standing at a crossroads. And others again, because a part of them knows that life could feel more exciting, aligned and alive, than it currently does.

I’m interested in all of it.

Creativity in my eyes is not a luxury, but a way of being in relationship with life and oneself.

As a Scorpio sun, Pisces moon and Cancer rising, I like to dive deep. 🧜🏻‍♀️

If you mention a strange dream, a creative obsession, a difficult manuscript or an unexpected astrological transit, there is a good chance, I will get disproportionately excited.

You’ve been warned.

I’m not the biggest in sharing intimate details, but here are some random facts to get to know me better:

  • These are the things I’d rescue from my burning home (after securing my family obviously): My Elfquest comic books, my old diaries & analogue pictures, the computer with all the stories in it. All emotion, little attachment to things.
  • My moon is in the 9th house, so if there’s anything new to learn or places to see, I’m hooked.
  • My music-taste oscilliates somewhere between The Clash, cheesy Italian lovesongs, Johnny Cash and handpan. Half witch, half cowgirl with an intellectual twist.
  • I’m terribly scared of ghost trains. Yes, the ones for children. Yes, I once hid behind the back of my 6 year old. Not a proud moment.
  • I thrive on celeriac juice, ceremonial cacao and icebathing. I know all of it is a hype. Still love it.
  • Anger is one of my favourite emotions. Not the one where you vomit out your rage on innocent people, but the one that makes you feel alive and bubbling with energy. The one that sets and keeps boundaries without question. (Mars in Leo anyone?)
  • I think every human, but especially every woman, should dance at least 15 minutes a day. Always forget it myself. Any time I do, I don’t need therapy.
  • Trying to learn to play the guitar forever. I have always been terrible in practicing, hasn’t improved yet. Still hoping.
  • I love language – and languages. German and English are pretty solid, Italian the language of my heart (even though I have a bad Sicilian accent). I stumble along in French and Spanish, can swear quite well in Greek and have a weird love for Dutch.
  • My favorite word – or at least one of them – is “Flaneur”. The noun and the action.
  • I’ve been trying to write crime movies for German TV and failed violently. Bored me to death. Then I tried Horror movies and couldn’t sleep because of my own ideas.
  • I hardly drink alcohol, rarely eat meat, avoid gluten, dairy and coffee, but would still consider myself a total foodie. And when I’m in Italy? I do all the above.
  • If you want to make me happy, bring me fresh fruit or vegetables from your garden, cold pressed olive oil, a homemade herbal tincture or cook me a meal.
  • Big fan of old Bollywood movies, but don’t tell my nerdy filmschool colleagues.
