About me

I’m a multilingual actress from Switzerland and I’m looking to collaborate on film projects across borders.
I’m drawn to characters who wrestle with their own ambivalence – who can be brave and fearful, strong and fragile, sad and joyful – and who, despite these contradictions within them, keep searching for a sense of grounding.
I bring intensity, depth and vulnerability to my work and am currently exploring the themes of shame, anger and humor – how characters navigate them, and whether they grow or break in the process.
My goal is to tell stories that move, challenge, and bring something healing into the world.
