about

For over ten years, I have been immersed in the alchemy and art of drum making. Bringing the vast, mystical voices of these ancient instruments into the world, and working with natural materials such as wood and raw hide, is a deep joy for me. Raised in a German-American family in Berlin, I studied fashion design at the University of the Arts Berlin before working in costume and jewelry design.

I was fortunate to encounter inspiring teachers and mentors who recognized my work and helped me to articulate my artistic expression. After completing my Master’s degree, I spent several years apprenticing with Indigenous artists, elders and healers from across North America. Their guidance and knowledge have had a profound impact on my work, adding depth and dimension to my understanding of art and design.
I am committed to creating purposeful art of authentic beauty, and to fostering vibrant spaces for enriching collaborations.
