ABOUT
I was born in Munich, Germany and I started writing and expressing myself creatively from as early on as primary school. During my days at school, I was often labelled a "dreamer" by my teachers. Perhaps it was because I dedicated the majority of their class hours to being deep in my own thoughts lent over a piece of paper. In comparison to maths worksheets or formula papers, my paper served as a playground for comics, poems, plays, and novels to come to life; A place for stories that transcended the limits of the classroom, often venturing into realms beyond our world. A blank piece of paper was where my fascination took root. It's regrettable that "dreaming" was never recognized as a formal school subject.
Great stories serve as a means to fully immerse oneself in different lives, worlds, and experiences, challenging one's own reality. Things that seem one way to me, may appear another way to someone else. The idea of us shaping each other’s perspectives and creating new ways to look at the world together is something that I feel should be brought up more in conversation and thought. My writing is my way of trying to entice others to attempt a new way of looking at things and challenge their own preconceptions.
