I grew up in Salzburg – Austria. I started apprenticing in a travel agency after high school and moved on to an advertising agency which allowed me to work part time as a classical theatre actress and producer of plays in various theaters in Austria. After my theatre career and while raising a son as a single Mom, I studied Art at the University for Artistic and Industrial Design in Austria, finishing with a Master of Fine Arts degree.
In the early 90’s I immigrated to America. I live in Joshua Tree since then. I operated a travel agency and a personal chef business here, besides working as an Artist continuously.
