While I was working in Mali as a carpenter in the 1990s I realised that I was more interested in the people than in their furniture. This was my motivation to study Anthropology. Today I work as a freelance filmmaker and anthropologist in Hamburg and around the world. Below is an overview of the most significant stages of my career:

2010–2013	PhD candidate at the Department of Anthropology & Cultural Research, Univeristy of Bremen within the third party research project The Future Okavango.
since 2006	Freelance filmmaker and ethnographic researcher
since 2004	Lecturer at the Universities of Hamburg, Bremen and Halle
