About Me

Freelance Author and Illustrator

I am a freelance author and illustrator specialising in scientific illustration. I explain complex things with images and texts that are easy to understand. Whether biology, climate, earth history, or social and sensitive topics — I find a way to get to the visual point.

I completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Scientific Illustration at HAW Hamburg with top marks. And driven by my thirst for knowledge, I am now an eager biology student at the University of Hamburg. This means I now know both sides: the technical language of research and the didactic and narrative techniques of science communication for diverse audiences.

In addition to illustration and text, I develop workshops and educational formats, for example for museums, schools, and educational events.

Three of my own non-fiction books have also been published by Haupt Verlag: Amazonia, Africa!, and Mediterranean. For these I researched intensively and travelled to gather ideas, clarify questions, and form my own impressions on location. I live with my family on the outskirts of Hamburg.
