The lyrical soprano was born in Mönchengladbach and first studied school music, then opera and concert singing at the Cologne University of Music, which she completed with a diploma and the concert exam with distinction. While still a student she made her debut at the Bonn Opera and the Hagen Theater. This was followed by permanent engagements at the Lübeck Theater and the Augsburg State Theater as well as guest performances at various theaters in Germany. After just one season she was awarded the Theater Prize of the City of Augsburg. Most recently, as a permanent member of the ensemble at the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz in Munich, she sang Agathe in "Der Freischütz", Marie in "The Bartered Bride", Michaela in "Carmen" and Pamina in "The Magic Flute" and was heard with Richard Strauss
