About Me
A trilingual (English, German and Russian) student of Media and Communications, my real and true dream is to pursue a professional acting career.
I have been performing since I was a child: acting with the children's choir in musicals and competing in international singing competitions, playing the violin and the piano, and besides participating in Jugend Musiziert being part of the Youth Orchestra of the Bavarian State Opera as well as acting in a German ARD movie.
I enjoy a variety of extracurricular activities which range from football, running and volleyball to filmmaking, reading and playing music.

Employment History & Experience
My love for music inspired me to join a children's choir which in turn led me to discover my love for acting. Being a member of a children´s choir, with whom I recorded CD´s for children´s books and tracks for the Radio as well as entered international singing contests, was a very defining experience. Furthermore, I played the part of Dorothy in the theatre and musical production “The Wizard of Oz” which sparked my love for theatre and film.
Following this amazing experience, I started visiting acting workshops and managed to convince a talent agency to represent me.
I successfully auditioned for a role in a German ARD movie, and the days on set gave me a detailed picture of how a film production works, but more importantly showed me how challenging yet rewarding and thrilling the creative industry can be. This amazing experience denoted my desire to act and perform as a profession and learn as much about film as I can, prompting me to secure a work placement at the Bavarian Music Studios to learn more about the post-production process of films, including sound editing, mixing and voice-overs. Meanwhile, I have acquired more experience in acting as well as knowledge in practical filmmaking and theory as a result of my school seminar in film, the video team and most notably a two week seminar at the Munich Film School (HFF), where I practised acting in front of the camera and obtained skills in cinematography and directing. I am now hoping to gain more acting experience in professional film productions. Most recently I have taken part in a workshop about audition techniques with Scott Cooper from Talent inc.
