I love to entertain people! 

This has been my passion in life since I was 13, when I began to sing and play bassguitar in an all- girl rock band “PKW”. Seven years later I got a solo recording contract with Sony for my own project – “Anaconda”. My first single “I need a hero” went straight into the media control charts in Germany, France and Spain where we stayed 10 weeks in the Top 20. I also went on Tour for a couple of months with Mr. President (“Coco Jumbo”) and Snap (“Rhythym is a Dancer”). I was thrilled!

Following the music project, I landed a feature role in musicals at the Musical Theatre Delphi Showpalast in Hamburg. During this time I also experienced my first taste of on air radio. 

Subsequently, I trained at Radio Hamburg and landed a gig as a morning host on the morning show of Radio Oldie95. This time included Interviews with the national soccer team at the European Football Championship (e.g. Michael Ballack, Lucas Podolski and Jens Lehmann). I also won the title of FHM Sexiest Radio Presenter 2009. 

After two and a half fun- filled years, I switched to television. I researched, wrote and presented interviews and current affairs on popular variety/ entertainment TV programs. For example, I had the honour to present live from the red carpet of “The Dome” the biggest music event in Germany. I interviewed stars like Mike Posner (“Cooler than me”), Far East Movement (“Like a G6”) and Aloe Blacc (“I need a dollar”). 

I love creating content and performing on radio and television as I feel I create a brighter and happier day for my audience. 

Last year, I visited and fell in love with Australia…!

 And now i am based in Sydney.
