I am a Berlin-born documentary photographer exploring themes of representation, environment, identity, and social activism, often through long-term projects.

My work has been featured in international publications including NPR, The New York Times, Die Zeit, Bloomberg Businessweek, Al Jazeera, TIME, DAZED, and WIRED. I am a Pulitzer Center grantee and an International Women’s Media Foundation Fellow.
