Events
I develop events that are more than just get-togethers: They are carefully curated experiences that facilitate encounters, promote dialog and leave lasting impressions.
Every event is a script of atmosphere, detail and shared energy.

Approach
My passion for events has its roots in hosting: Consciously shaping encounters with empathy, service and attention to detail.
Today, I combine this attitude with my professional event expertise: whether it's a workshop, concert or festival, I develop formats that are clearly structured and at the same time atmospherically dense. I always keep diversity and accessibility in mind in order to welcome people from different backgrounds.
I particularly enjoy designing events so that they feel like a journey: an experience that appeals to the senses, is memorable and only unfolds its full effect in retrospect.

At the beginning of an event, I ask myself: What is the goal we are pursuing? What feeling should remain at the end? Based on this, I analyze the needs of the target group, the environment and possible blind spots that are still unused. The result is a concept that is both relevant and unique.
From there, I take a structured approach: I translate the idea into clear plans, timelines and task packages, prioritize and coordinate everything in the team or with partners. I maintain an overview and ensure that the essentials remain in focus while we react flexibly to dynamics.

When it comes to implementation, I am often the person who brings all the strands together: I keep track of schedules, structures and contacts, coordinate communication and stay calm - even when things get hectic. This calmness creates orientation in the team and provides security.
At the same time, I set deliberate accents that give events depth and character and ensure that they have a lasting effect.
Education &
Empowerment
I develop retreats, seminars and training courses that make knowledge tangible and promote self-efficacy: such as an empowerment retreat on mental health and professional orientation or programs for BIPoC young people on power-critical perspectives.

Arts &
Culture
My cultural formats combine creativity with social dialog: from exhibitions/performances by local artists to workshops on black hair culture or indiginous best practices. The goal is always to fuse knowledge, history and hands-on practice.

Community &
Connection
I deliberately design community events to be admission-free and/or low-threshold. Reocurring formats are festivals or celebrations of marginalized communities. This creates third places that enable belonging and exchange.

Vision
Advisory Board, Coach e.V.
In future, I would like to implement more formats that enable immersive experiences and create sustainable synergies: Events that have an impact far beyond the moment.
It is important to me to open up spaces for dialog, empowerment and visibility that also convey liveliness and joy. For me, events are not an end in themselves, but a tool for larger goals: They can strengthen community, enable new forms of coming together and serve as a catalyst for social change.
I am particularly interested in collaborations in global networks and with organizations and institutions that share this attitude.
