About me


I have  had the pleasure to work in a wide range of fields in the theatre genre on and behind the stage so far: 
 
Dance performance, acting , music production, composition, music performance (piano) live as well as online events.
 
Musical direction for different theatre formations,
personal coaching classes in music or dance, Performing with and for a young audience as well as performing for the elderly.
​
I realised that full potential is an attitude. It's the speed and quality in which you act and react in your range of work. It's your social and emotional intelligence. It's to learn when to step back and to know when to step in
