I was born in the western part of the then divided city of Berlin. One particular teacher in high school with special teaching methods impacted me greatly. This formed my conviction to become a teacher myself.

After studying at the Freie Universität Berlin and the Technische Universität Berlin I achieved the first Staatsexamen. After two years as a trainee teacher at a middle school I passed the second Staatsexamen and am now accredited as teacher of grades 1 through 10. By then I had found out I had made the right choice! Teaching is fun and like the teacher who had been my role model I delight in finding each pupil's individual path of learning. In 2022 I was offered the great opportunity to become a staff member at GIS and have moved to Beaverton with my 8 year old daughter and husband. 

In my free time I enjoy plaing field hockey and other team sports.
