Vita

I am a news editor with the Wall Street Journal’s CFO Journal, covering corporate finance. In that capacity, I report on U.S. companies and their finances, including bond issuances, CFO-appointments, debt, mergers and acquisitions, tax, trade and treasury.

I relocated to the U.S. in July 2019 after nearly three years with the WSJ in London, during which I covered corporate finance at European and British companies. Prior to my time with the WSJ, I worked as a U.K. Business and Finance Correspondent for WELT N24, a German media group.

I took on this role in August 2013, after my return from Shanghai, China. In China, I reported on domestic and international companies as well as the Chinese economy.

Before I left for China, I underwent journalistic training with WELT N24 in Berlin and worked for a range of local outlets in Germany. In 2012, I was awarded the Georg von Holtzbrinck Preis für Wirtschaftspublizistik, a major prize for business reporting, for a story about growing pig exports from Germany to China.

I studied Political Science, Modern History and American Studies at Bonn University in Germany and Georgetown University in the US. I also received a double masters degree in Media and Global Communications from the  London School of Economics and Fudan University in Shanghai.
