My practice began with my interest and study in Art History, earning my Master’s at the University of Heidelberg, a beautiful town famous for its University, castle – and Offset printing machines. It seemed like an obvious next step that I would move into the world of fine art publishing.

After finishing my studies in 2001, I began my career working with Kehrer Verlag, an independent publishing house renowned for its high-quality photography books and fine art publications. There, I gathered a wide range of experiences in the fields of PR, distribution, project management and finally: book making.

In my last position as Acquisitions Editor, I was responsible for selecting and acquiring new photography projects and broadened the spectrum of titles. Furthermore, I was an invited expert to portfolio reviews and juror at many international festivals and competitions, a task that enabled me to develop an incredible network of photographers and professionals working in the field which has allowed me access to other makers and experts.

It is my passion to see the individual strength in any photography project and to help the artist develop their projects in a way that will reflect their authenticity in the work they are creating.

While maintaining connections to Kehrer Verlag, I will use my experience and vast network to advise and connect photographers independently, finding the best match for both sides: artist and institution.
