About me

"On stage, on camera and in life, I go for the entirety. I see myself first and foremost as an artisan in the world of theatre. My passion for language and communication guides my stagework. The most unique inspiration for me is the energy exuded by people of all ages in the process of learning and discovery. My approach while working on a character ist that of a child exploring, seeking her own personal expression, with all means available. Language can often be very limiting. That is exactly where my search begins."
