She knew she wanted to work in the creative industry from a young age, which led her to study 3D animation and VFX art. Her animation style is inspired by children's shows, Disney movies, and Nintendo games from the '90s. Illustrating children's books is her artistic outlet and allows her to feed her passion for creating characters and stories.

Her portfolio is a showcase for a wide range of projects, from editorial illustrations, character design, and visual development to product design and packaging, 3D scenery and character modeling, and look-development. Her client list includes big names like Adobe, Lidl, Dell, My Best Book, and 3dtotal. In addition to her freelance career, she has experience in education, working as the head of the 3D modeling and character design department and teaching classes at PIXL VISN and SCHOOL OF GAMES in Cologne.
