When she's not acting in film or theater she tours Germany with the cabaret band KaTSong, leads workshops in the field of cultural education or writes fiction and poetry. Her short story “Lucy Love” was published by Kremart Editions in 2019.

She has collaborated with a wide range of artists from different backgrounds such as theatre, music, illustration, circus or film animation; performed as a storyteller on the stages of the Rotondes and the Philharmonie; given workshops for children and teenagers. Recently her work has shifted its focus towards an adult public, with the audiobook project “Kappkino” and her storytelling series "Tête-à-Tête".
