About

I am currently employed as a business and finance reporter for the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung based in Frankfurt. Beforehand, I was based in Munich as business correspondent. I started at F.A.Z. in 2017 as a reporter for the pharma sector based in Frankfurt. Furthermore, I gathered experience as an automotive reporter for Dow Jones Newswires and The Wall Street Journal. Having worked in business and financial journalism for the past years, I have been able to develop a profound knowledge of investors’ interests and demands. My ability to socialize and the cultivation of relationships have led to the build up of a valuable network. I am a very motivated, hard-working and conscientious team player. Before starting my professional career, I have earned two top-class university-degrees, majoring in Business Journalism (B.A.) as well as in Journalism and Media, with a specilisation in Business and Financial Journalism (M.A.). I have lived and studied abroad in several countries (Austria, Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, United Kingdom).
