About Me
I've always felt that life isn't something you figure out - it's something you feel. At 19 years old, I left my home in Switzerland and set out to see the world. Over the years, I've traveled across continents, collecting experiences, stories, and moments that shaped me. Somewhere along the way, my passion to create - became my job.
Now, I'm a Creative - through film, photography, and design, I capture the fleeting moments that make life feel alive, and share them in ways that resonate with others. I don't know exactly where this path leads, but maybe that's the point...

My Story
A creative journey shaped by places, people, and stories.
How did I get here?
Home
After more than 13 months on the road through Asia, Oceania and around the world, I finally set foot back home in Switzerland. What had started as a journey into the unknown turned into a chapter filled with adventures, challenges, and lessons I could never have planned for.
Travel taught me how to adapt, create, and live with freedom, while constantly pushing me out of my comfort zone. Every new place came with people, stories, and experiences that shaped the way I see both the world and myself.
Coming home doesn't feel like closing a book, but rather like start writing a new chapter of it. With everything I've learned abroad, I now return with fresh perspective, ready to bring those insights into the next chapter of my personal and professional journey.
Heitland Media Group
While I was traveling through New Zealand, I came across an opportunity I could have only dreamt of before. What began as an idea during my travels - combining creativity with the freedom of working from anywhere — suddenly became reality.
I connected with Jens Heitland, the founder and CEO at Heitland Media Group, who had previously held executive roles at major corporations like IKEA, and who later built a company focused on innovation, media, and leadership. The role allowed me to step into truly professional creative work — from video production to digital storytelling — and at the same time gave me the freedom to live as a digital nomad, a lifestyle that had fascinated me long before I thought it could be possible.
This moment marked the transition from creating just for passion while traveling to really working professionally in the creative industry, all while staying true to the adventurous path I had started.
Travel Agencies
It all started with a simple idea: to offer my photography and videography in exchange for opportunities to explore new places. I began reaching out to travel agencies and companies, often unsure of the response — but to my surprise, doors started to open. For the first time, I truly experienced what it meant to work for myself — fully on my own terms. I managed everything under my own label: crafting pitches, negotiating collaborations, and delivering the final results. Every small success felt incredibly rewarding because I had built it myself from the ground up. What started as an experiment quickly became a lesson in independence, creativity, and resilience. I learned how to navigate uncertainty and build trust with partners, and it confirmed that I wanted to pursue a life where storytelling and travel could become more than a side project — they could become my path.
My Travels
During some recent years, I often felt stuck in a bubble. I spent countless evenings watching cinematic travel films on YouTube - people venturing into wild places, living adventures, and capturing it all on camera. I knew I wanted to experience that for myself, but at the time, I had to stay patient and finish what I had started.
Around half a year before the end of my apprenticeship, I made the decision: as soon as it was over, I would pack my backpack and go. My plan was simple but exciting - explore Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, and see where the road would take me from there.
When the moment finally came, and I zipped up my bag for the first time, I felt an overwhelming mix of excitement, freedom, and happiness. It was the beginning of a journey I had dreamed about for years - a chapter of adventure and creativity that was finally becoming real.
Apprenticeship
After four years of learning and growing, I completed my apprenticeship as a Computer Scientist EFZ at Stadt Rapperswil-Jona. It was a time where I not only built technical skills but also learned discipline, patience, and how to keep pushing even when things weren't easy.
Looking back, it feels like this chapter was more than just about computers or code — it was about building a foundation for life. The work taught me how to solve problems, how to stay curious, and how to adapt when things didn't go as planned. But deep down, I also knew that this was only the beginning.
Finishing my apprenticeship meant closing one important chapter and opening another. It gave me the freedom to finally listen to the voice inside me that was calling for adventure, creativity, and seeing the world with my own eyes.
What began as a simple hobby when I was five years old slowly grew into something much larger than I could have ever imagined. Floorball became the heartbeat of my youth — first as play, then as passion, and eventually as a professional career. I started out at my home club, Jona-Uznach Flames, where I first learned what it means to be part of a team. Later, I joined UHC Uster, and that step opened the doors to the highest league in Switzerland. I was fortunate to experience moments that will stay with me forever — from competing in the top leagues to traveling across Europe for international tournaments. To make all of this possible, I dedicated myself fully. Sports school, countless hours of training, sacrifices of free time, and an endless drive to get better — floorball was my life. And in return, it gave me more than I could ever ask for: friendships, discipline, resilience, and the chance to live a dream. Ending my career wasn't easy. It meant closing a door that had defined me for so many years. But looking back, I don't see it as an end — rather as a chapter full of growth, experiences, and memories that will stay part of me forever.
My journey into the creative world began in the simplest way — with an iPhone in hand and a curiosity to capture the moments around me. Whether spending time with friends at home or exploring new places, I found a deep fascination in freezing fleeting experiences, observing the world through a lens, and learning how to tell stories visually. It felt like discovering a new way to feel life, to make the intangible tangible. Eventually, I bought my first proper camera from a friend, and that moment changed everything. Suddenly, I had the tools to experiment, to push boundaries, and to explore creativity in a way that was entirely my own. Each photo, each frame, became a small step toward understanding how I see the world and how I want to share it. This wasn't just about learning photography — it was the moment I realized that creating could be more than a hobby. It could be a lens through which I experience life, a medium to express ideas, and ultimately the foundation of a path where passion, curiosity, and freedom could intersect. This marked the beginning of my creative journey, one that would shape the way I travel, work, and connect with the world.
At 15, right after finishing school, I took my first step into the working world. Beginning my apprenticeship as a Computer Scientist EFZ at Stadt Rapperswil-Jona introduced me to a structured environment where I learned not only technical skills, but also discipline, responsibility, and how to approach challenges with focus and persistence.
Those early years were about more than just work experience. They taught me how to manage my time, set goals, and grow steadily through dedication and effort. I discovered the importance of curiosity, resilience, and patience — lessons that would become invaluable as I ventured into new paths. This chapter laid the foundation for everything that came after: discovering my creative passions, experimenting with photography, traveling the world, and gradually shaping a life defined by independence, exploration, and the freedom to create on my own terms.
