About

Freelance journalist and author

I work on deeply reported features and multimedia stories. My interests include animals, the ocean, climate change, the brain and mind – however, I cover stories across science, health and the environment. I'm open to editorial commissions.

My articles have appeared in National GeographicNew Statesman and Republik, among other magazines. Before going freelance in September 2021, I was a reporter at WIRED magazine in London and the Swiss newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung, where I wrote articles and produced videos. Alongside my freelance projects, I'm currently a climate reporter for the Swiss magazine Republik.

I write in both English and German and also speak French, Spanish and Portuguese. 

​

I've also authored four non-fiction books for children.
