After studying Laws, American Literature and European Ethnology, I have been working in various jobs related to rights and distribution. Before I joined Carlsen Publishers’ rights department in 2004, I gained experience in the field of rights from working at Aufbau Publishers and Gruner & Jahr’s syndication department. Carlsen Publishers are Germany’s children’s book market leader, giving me the opportunity to pitch various kinds of books and gaining experience in various book markets worldwide.

Born 1966 in Hamburg, I am married and have a 17-year-old daughter.
