My work is rooted by my background in cultural studies, journalism, and union work. Growing up between Germany and Portugal, I learned early on that belonging isn’t bound to one place, but shaped by people, language, and shared experiences. Living between cultures made me attuned to the social dynamics of inclusion and exclusion — and sparked my curiosity for the political dimension of everyday life. It’s this awareness that continues to shape my work today: understanding structures, exposing inequalities, and amplifying voices that are often unheard.

​

I hold a degree in Cultural Studies, Media Communication and Gender Studies and approach my work from a feminist and intersectional perspective. For the past years, I’ve worked as an editor at ver.di, one of Germany’s largest trade unions, where I cover issues at the intersection of labor, democracy, and social justice – from political education and anti-fascist resistance to digital surveillance and feminist health.

​

Previously, I worked in various roles across NGOs and agencies – always navigating the space where communication meets activism. Whether in campaign development, content strategy or journalistic writing, I’ve been driven by the desire to make complex realities accessible and to challenge the systems that produce inequality.
