Bio

For over 20 years, I have been independently producing video

content – ranging from image films and documentaries to event

coverage, social media content, portraits, and photography. My

camera work has taken me to projects with brands like Nike,

Adidas, and Red Bull, reaching as far as Los Angeles, New

York, Helsinki and Berlin.

I bring not only a strong creative eye and technical expertise, but

also work reliably, independently, and in a structured way –

whether solo or as part of a team. I’m flexible in how I work,

whether in a collaborative setting, in a leading role, or directly with

clients – and I have hands-on experience in all of these areas.

Previously, I ran my own business as the owner of ZUPPORT-Store

in Trier for over 20 years. That time gave me in-depth knowledge in

business management, online marketing, and SEO – and taught me

what it means to take responsibility and think entrepreneurially.

I was also regularly active as a videographer at sports events,

concerts, and theatre productions – experiences I still draw on in

new professional challenges today.
