When I was at school, it often happened that small clusters of classmates formed during the breaks to listen to one of the stories I had just told. In the course of time I got the nickname "The Storyteller". I learned storytelling from the movies I watched. If I liked a movie, I couldn't help but watch it again with others, so I must have seen some movies more than four times. It quickly became clear that I definitely wanted to take on one of the many roles in film production. I want to use my enthusiasm for experiencing and telling stories and my interpersonal sensitivity to entertain others, bring them closer together and, ideally, enrich the life of one person or another. After all, I believe that, in modified forms, we all carry the same stories within us and are connected to each other through them.
