Since 2002, I have been active in my workshop in the Gurtenbrauereiareal (Gurten Brewery Area) in the Wabern district of Bern as a goldsmith, course instructor, and as a jewellery, object and text creator.
Aside from my goldsmith teaching at the state-approved professional school for glass and jewellery in Kaufbeuren-Neugablonz, I also worked as a goldsmith journey(wo-)man in Reutlingen und Nürnberg.
After my general studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, metallurgy, in Nürnberg I completed an acting degree at the Schule Totales Theater in Lützelflüh. I was a freelance actress for ten years. During this time, I began writing short stories and plays.
