Born in Germany, I immigrated to New Zealand with my husband and son in 1999. Now I live and work in Red Beach on the beautiful Hibiscus Coast, North of Auckland.
After graduating in Business Management in Germany and studying Interior Decoration in New Zealand, I decided to follow my creativity and my passion for art and design. In New Zealand I shared a large art studio in Dairy Flat, collaborated with other artists, and I showed my work in solo and group exhibitions in Germany, New Zealand, Italy, and the US.
After my husband passed away in 2017 I needed some time out to re-organise my life. I went on a path of Meditation, Yoga and Weight loss. When I started Yoga lessons I wanted to buy a Yoga bolster and other supporting probs to practice at home. Because I couldn’t find what I like, I designed my own range of hand-crafted Yoga and Meditation cushions. I wanted the products to be washable, practical and beautiful plus filled with natural materials like NZ wool or organic cotton. My new business ALLSENSES was launched at the International Yoga Festival in Albany in February 2018. Since then I added other hand-crafted products and I will add more in the future.
