About me

Nearby. Genuine. Inspiring.

Basketball has shaped my life – as a player, as captain of the national team and as part of a team that has fought its way back onto the big international stage together. In addition to the classic 5-on-5, I have also increasingly found my passion in 3×3, a game that demands everything and at the same time gives so much in return. The greatest reward for this journey: winning the 2024 Olympics in Paris. A moment that was not only a sporting highlight, but also an emotional one and a strong sign of what is possible when trust, team spirit and determination come together

Vision

From the game. In the middle of life.

After the end of my active career, I am looking ahead – with full conviction and passion for the future of women’s basketball.

Since 2024, I have been working as the manager for girls’ and women’s basketball at ALBA BERLIN. Here, I work every day to take women’s basketball in Germany to the next level – to make it more professional, more visible and more sustainable. Because the next generation deserves the best conditions to achieve great things.

Impulses that remain.

Leadership & Success

Trust, communication and clear goals are the key to sustainable team success – in sport and in business. From my time as captain of the national team, I show in a practical way how these values lead to real cohesion and thus to top performance.

Motivation & mental strength

Mental strength shows itself in the decisive moments. I share how I dealt with setbacks and pressure in top-class sport and how this can lead to new motivation, clarity and focus.

Women in sport & equal rights

I actively campaign for more visibility and equality in sport. In my talks, I talk about structural hurdles, personal experiences and how targeted support opens up new paths for girls and women: on the pitch and beyond.

With my focus on professional basketball, women in competitive sport and mental health, I offer authentic, practical insights into German women’s sport – and would like to motivate and empower young women and girls in particular.

I look forward to meeting you live at events – whether on stage, in the studio or online via video link. With individually tailored keynotes, workshops and creative team-building and activity formats, I provide new impetus and support you in growing together.

From the hall. Into the heart.
