ABOUT
I am a creative designer and communication specialist whose work follows a strong strategic and inquisitive approach.
I am definitely a fit for you if you are looking for a designer driven by a passion for understanding behaviour and motivations, who loves to ask: For whom? Why? What if?
I am particularly passionate about business, strategy and information architecture, as well as about science communication, science, innovation, technology and their ripple on society.
Working hard on sketching ideas on future development of employment and jobseeking, one of the many great challenges within the three day seminar "Futures Journalism: How to report on the future" created and led by shape of new

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
There are designers who do exactly what they are told. And then there is Anna. Our story dates back to 2007, and since then my team at Feinkost Käfer has repeatedly hired her as a freelancer for challenging projects.
The reason is simple: Anna asks the right questions. She is inventive, thinks outside the box and is not satisfied with the first solution that comes along. Her proactive and solution-oriented approach leads to results that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but above all strategically sound and intelligent.
Working with her is always straightforward, honest and absolutely reliable.
It has been a pleasure to see her develop over the years into a confident, strategically minded designer. When there is a complex problem that needs a creative and functional solution, Anna is one of my first choices.
Cem Czerwionke
Creative Director, Feinkost Käfer GmbH
Highly creative and productive designer with a knack for strategic thinking: Anna supported Antidote Vertriebs GmbH at two critical moments when a corporate identity review for the I•DO Brand was needed, proving herself to be totally reliable, dedicated and relentless in her pursuit of the perfect branding solution.
Julien Jockers
Founder and General Brand Director, Antidote Vertriebs GmbH
Anna is an intelligent creative who illustrated two vast product catalogues under my direction. She created a compelling narrative, exactly as required by the brief and proved herself flexible, hard working and reliable, able to communicate her ideas convincingly to me or the end clients.

We have been watching Anna's creative development for many years: her creative eclecticism is a rare gem in the design panorama in Munich. She is a fit for every agency or company in need of reliable, hard working, enthusiastic partner, able to generate original ideas and never failing to add an Italian twist to them, whenever the brief calls for it.

Never shying away from a brainstorming session, she infused creativity into our projects.
Beyond being an essential team player, Anna's leadership, combined with her extensive expertise in graphic design and project management, steered us smoothly through challenging projects.
Despite a fast-paced, competitive environment, she juggled responsibilities proficiently, showing exemplary multitasking skills. In essence, Anna's presence not only fueled our success but fostered a conducive and enjoyable work environment.
Alessandro Grandinetti
Brand Manager, Studiogusto
Anna has shown us that art and design have the ability to tell stories and express emotions in a way that words alone cannot.
With her creative yet reliable manner, she managed to turn the images from our minds into pictures on paper.
We would love to work with her again any time.
Christian Dinow
Founder and CEO, less'n'more GmbH
Anna has been our trusted graphic designer for years. She has a great feeling for our CD, understands what suits us and thinks along with us. We appreciate her reliability and creativity. Thank you very much, dear Anna, we look forward to our further cooperation.
