I’m a writer and producer based in Berlin, working across arts and culture.

As a reporter and commentator, my writing explores the relationship between artistic expression and social and political realities, with a focus on the visibility and reception of women artists, and the relationship between culture and far right politics.

My work has been published in The Guardian, The Atlantic, Internazionale, Aeon, by Reuters, BBC, and Forum Kultur und Außenpolitik, and has been critically acclaimed and cited in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, The New York Times, and Slate.

Alongside my writing, I provide editorial consultancy, cultural programming, and project production for institutions and organisations across the arts, design, fashion, and architecture. I currently lead Brand Narrative and Cultural Partnerships for Bottega Veneta. Other collaborations include Thames & Hudson, Goethe Institut, ifa, DCV Books, Psyche, and Grau.

I have developed, produced, and presented several podcasts including both investigative and interview-based series with Thames and Hudson, Politico, Global Public Policy Institute, European Council on Foreign Relations, and Humboldt Forum Berlin. I co-launched the Germany programme of Intelligence Squared, a forum for live discussion and debate, and regularly host and moderate public talks and events, including with Humboldt Forum Berlin, Max Planck Society, Heinrich Böll Stiftung, and the International Literature Festival Berlin.

I have a first-class degree in Modern Languages and Literature from the University of Cambridge and an MA, with Distinction, from the Courtauld Institute of Art. I am fluent in German, Italian and French, and have led workshops, seminars and talks at Bard College Berlin, the University of Bristol, and the University of Cambridge.
