I am an enthusiastic cultural agitator and communications expert based in Bern, Switzerland. As head of communications and press at Norient, I collaborate with music researchers, practitioners, and cultural organizers from around the globe daily on digital publications, books, podcasts, and for events like the Norient Festival.
I am open and communicative, and with my extensive network in the Swiss and international cultural sector. Since December 2025 I am part of the Musikvielfalt-Initiative, which advocates for fair funding for professional musicians, venues and music event organizers across all genres.
From 2017 to 2025 I was press manager for the Swiss Music Prizes of the Federal Office of Culture, I work with outstanding and innovative Swiss musicians and culture professionals, notably: Irène Schweizer, Yello, Sol Gabetta, Sebb Bash, Aïsha Devi, Antoine Chessex, Louis Jucker, Tom Gabriel Fischer, Simone Keller, and Béatrice Graf, among many others.
I was a team member of the concert tour Cycloton 2019 and 2024 – Tour de Suisse en Musique, which combined intergenerational concert experiences in the French- and German-speaking parts of Switzerland, sustainable cultural production, and soft mobility.
My background as a former assistant and tutor at the Musicology Institute of the University of Bern has allowed me to remain linked to the academic field as well.
Besides this, I have initiated film programs and interdisciplinary events at the Kino in der Reitschule and hosted screenings and panels of NGOs, filmmakers, and other organizations that used the cinema for thematic evenings.
