She worked as a shop window designer, made portraits of tourists in Greece and applied in vain to fashion school. Finally she took the Technische Abitur (baccalaureate-level qualification), but decided against studying physics as first envisaged. She took singing lessons with Anneliese Hofmann de Boer and acting lessons with John Costopoulos in the Lee Strasberg Method.
She is now married to Harald Krassnitzer.
She works with the charity Dunkelziffer - Hilfe für sexuell missbrauchte Kinder ("Unreported - Help for Sexually Abused Children") in Hamburg and represents the Bundesstiftung Kinderhospiz ("Federal Children"s Hospice Foundation").
