Work – for Real this Time

I work as a freelance journalist and copywriter, with a successful sideline of travelling to faraway places at very short notice, which leaves very little time for maintaining blogs such as this one, designed to show prospective employers my work.

If you are, however, looking for a freelancer to contribute to your magazine, website or other product containing words, take a look at my published work and references and I would be more than happy to make time for you.

I will write stuff for money.

Gabbing about Love

When I started working for be2, it was but a blip on the radar of the online matchmaking market. Three years, and numerous changes of my job definition, later, be2 is the fastest-growing company in its sector and spouting success stories like they’re going out of fashion.

As online editor, I contribute all kinds of copy to the website, as well as email and online marketing, but the corporate blog has become my pet project. I get to research, write and post pretty much anything I deem of interest and relevant to our readers. Building this kind of a project from scratch with a really small, enthusiastic team, making it up as we go along, is a journalist’s dream come true. Add to that the flexible working hours and informal work style and I’ve got myself a match made in heaven.

Oh, I do all that stuff in English, too.

On the Sunny Side

Sunny Systems sometimes need new onsite copy to tie in with website redesigns they provide for clients.

I provide copywriting, SEO and polishing in German and English, as well as translations.

If I Can Make it There, Surely I Can Find a Job When I Get Back Home

For three months after Uni I had the coolest postgrad job in the universe. (even better than this one)

Prove it, you say?

My internship in the US correspondents’ office of German publishing company Burda was not only interesting, varied and insightful, it was also in New York.

I went to work here every day for three months:

I rest my case.
