About

I work on deeply reported features, investigations and multimedia stories. My personal interests include animals, the ocean, climate change, the brain and mind – however, I cover stories across science, health and the environment.
 

My articles have appeared in National Geographic, New 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. Three of my children's books have been published.

I write in both English and German and also speak French, Spanish and Portuguese. Regrettably, I spend a lot of time in the office, and welcome opportunities to report on the ground. I've reported stories from Mozambique, Madagascar and Sri Lanka, for example.
 

Currently, I also work part-time as an editor at SWI swissinfo.ch, the international service of the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation.
