CURRENT MISSION

Transplant myself from my native Switzerland to the Bay Area

ABOUT ME

After finishing my studies in English literature and linguistics, history and political science, I worked for a little over two years as a copy editor/content manager/writer for a newspaper in Zurich. An interesting job where I got to meet interesting people, but I could not get rid of the desire to live in a different part of the world. So I quit my job and my apartment, said goodbye to my friends and got on a plane to San Francisco where I plan to settle and live as a writer.
