I studied Cultural Anthropology and Theatre- Film- and Television Studies at the University of Cologne, Germany and at the National University in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Since 2003 I am working as a freelance author and filmmaker in cooperation with the film production company Kigali-films from Cologne. We are producing documentaries for different TV stations and NGOs in Germany and Austria, mainly on topics related to socio-political and development issues. Besides that I am editing and writing for a monthly online newsletter focussing on topics like renewable energies, human rights, gender issues, HIV/AIDS and international cooperation.
