Born in Vienna in 1987, the same year „Dirty Dancing“ was released. From a very early age she had a huge interest in films; and when sent to bed early, so her parents could watch the prime time movie, she would always sneak out into the hallway and watch the whole film standing there quietly. Even the risk that her parents could turn their heads and catch her awake and out of bed at any second couldn't detour her.

And so her love for movies grew. When she started to get pocket money, she‘d spend it on VHS, and later on DVDs. What she didn't spend on movies, she would spend on Kodak film for her analogue Olympus camera, as she also loved taking pictures of everything and everyone.

At first, she had no idea that her love for film and photography would turn into more than just a hobby. She started to make videos with friends at the age of 17. Shot on Mini VHS tapes and edited in Pinnacle Studio. They weren't masterpieces, but they enjoyed making them and having those little screenings with their families. It wasn't until much later however, that she realized that creating movies is what she wanted her career to be.

Once the decision was made to pursue this as her dream...

She took positions as a Directing Assistent and Camerawork on student films and artistic shoots, from there on to paid freelance work in directing, Camerawork, and editing.

At her studies for her BA in Cinematography at the Film Academy Vienna she was exceeding all expectations and graduated with honors.

Currently she is in the midst of studying for a Master's degree in Cinematography at the Vienna Film Academy, and as difficult as this industry and path can be, she loves every second of it and wouldn't change it for the world.
