ABOUT ME

Download CV (2019) 

Yo. I’m excited you’re here. Also, if you brought coffee, I’m even more excited. Thanks for taking the time out to find out a little more about me and my work.  Based out in the Hamburg region, my time is focused mainly in the editorial sector, as well as freelancing in film and TV.

So let’s get to it. Hiphop and rap music provided the soundtrack to my adolescence. I’ve always been captivated by the ability to paint a picture through words. The music resonated with me and eventually found its way into my profession – music journalism.

I love hiphop, pop culture and I love writing. I adore words that have a distinct ebb and flow, when the flow is as effortless as the story the writer depicts. I’m instinctive and follow various media from all over the world.

WHY the artist uses music to express themselves. Their USP. Their perception of themselves (before/after) and how they inspire others.
I trace my love of music and pop culture to my upbringing in Germany with a non-mainstream Afro-German origin, leading me to hip-hop as a lifeline to my cultural identity. I’m convinced that coming from this cultural environment will provide a new cross-cultural perspective and add significant long-term value.
I’m a Media Design alumnus of Cimdata Media Academy in Berlin and graduated from the Unit Manager and Director Assistant Program at the iSFF Berlin (Institute of Acting, Film and TV Professions). Currently I’m finishing my Bachelor’s degree in ‚Digital Media‘ in english at Leuphana University in Lüneburg and simultaneously at the Hamburg Media School and the minor in ‚Popular Music Studies‘ to enhance my major in the field of economics and humanities by bringing in the perspective of international pop music research.

Besides writing for companies, magazines and websites, I’m an experienced freelance Unit- and Set Manager producing content for various film productions and visual media outlets for the past eight years — I have enjoyed working across a number of different genres over the past few years.
My work has been solicited by the likes of Netflix, Apple, Disney, Google and Nickelodeon. 
So writing, editing, producing and creating original content are some of my strong suits. 
If you need help with developing new ideas, concepts or general public excitement, then I’m happy to help. I’m always open for new creative collaborations, so if you have an idea — let me know!
