was born in Herford / Westphalia and lives in Berlin. She studied fine arts at the Braunschweig University of Fine Arts, where she graduated as a master student with Professor John Armleder in 2004.

In 2020, her book “Geschätzte Tiere / Valued Animals” was published by Hatje Cantz Verlag and shows her works from the past decade, which also aims to contribute to the current debate on nature conservation in society, which is more relevant than ever before.
