I was born in Nuremberg, Germany, in 1996. After graduating from high school, I spent a couple of years abroad working various jobs like teaching Japanese kids how to ski or looking after chickens in New Zealand. My travels sparked my interest in street photography and documentary film making. Back in Germany, I started directing and editing documentaries for a production company. Since 2019 I have been studying film directing at Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF, deepening my understanding of documentary film making whilst falling in love with fictional story-telling.
I am a co-founder of KANDAKA
