For the past four years, I have been living between Donegal and Belfast, continuing a creative and socially engaged journey that began over a decade ago in Berlin. I moved to the city in 2011, immersing myself in its vibrant arts scene while working as a freelance photographer, photojournalist, and photo editor for various media outlets and newspapers. In 2019, I joined Stattlab, a screen print lab, where I deepened my exploration of printing and photographic techniques, discovering new ways to merge image-making with tactile, hands-on processes. I continue to develop this approach today as a member of the Belfast Print Workshop.

Now based in Ireland, I work as a socially engaged multidisciplinary artist and community organiser. My earlier path as a photojournalist immersed me in current affairs, but it also revealed a crucial truth: real change begins when we listen to communities themselves, rather than to narratives shaped by mainstream media. Carrying this understanding forward, my practice is rooted in collaboration and participatory methods—using photography, PhotoVoice, collage, and printmaking to create spaces for dialogue and exchange. I work to nurture environments where people can share their own narratives, challenge stereotypes, and imagine new possibilities together. Whether addressing local concerns, environmental struggles, or global justice, my focus is on fostering inclusive platforms that celebrate community voices and spark creativity, connection, and collective action.
