About me
'Media that connects with people
can really make a difference.'
Concepts with a 'message', whether they are games, art installations or other forms of media, fascinate me. Not only the educational aspect of imparting knowledge, but also making people think and raising awareness about certain issues have been important factors in many of my past projects.
Feel free to have a look at my previous work in my portfolio.
Education
After my Abitur, I graduated in 'Educational Science (B.A.)' and gained valuable knowledge in the fields of education, sociology and psychology.
Since childhood, I have been interested in IT, videogames and digital media. In addition to gaming, I also enjoy creative pursuits such as digital art.
During my Master's degree in 'Media and Game Design (M.A.)', I deepened my knowledge and combined it with my interest in digital media and game development. For my master's thesis I developed a games concept for a point & click adventure, that thematically deals with Social Anxiety Disorder.
Projects
In various projects I have not only been able to get to know new media, but also to bring my knowledge from the educational field into the work and combine both fields in this way.
In this context, I am particularly interested in edutainment, gamification, serious games and all kinds of media, in which not only entertainment but also other aspects such as a learning effect, a change in behaviour or awareness play a role.
But other formats using digital media also offer many interesting possibilities that I am curious about.
Skills
One of my greatest strengths is my ability to use language both in creative and scientific writing. While scientific work is primarily about researching, analysing and documenting, I have also been able to gain a wide range of experience in creative writing.
In terms of narrative design, storytelling and user experience, it is particularly important to me to create authentic experiences that connect with people. A focus on target groups was a key element in the conceptualisation of my projects.
I have also gained experience in the field of digital art. In addition to drawing as a hobby, I realised a heart project during my studies: an illustrated children's book.
