From people and brands to the world we share, I tell stories with the intention to create connection.
My firm belief is that we connect through people and their stories. Whether it’s a portrait, a personal brand or a documentary, it’s the human element that makes us care.
Driven by empathy and a deep curiosity about people and the world around me, I value the honest moments in between and the trust that allows people to show up as they are.
Born in 1994 and raised in Amden, Switzerland, I’m a photographer and filmmaker based in Zurich. Alongside commissioned work in portrait, branding and reportage, I develop independent documentary projects exploring our changing climate and our relationship with the natural world.
