Journalism

As a foreign correspondent I write analyses, reports, interviews and features for newspapers, magazines and websites. I also report on current events on live television and get invited to explain either Italy to Germans or vice versa in TV shows, radio and podcasts. 

Currently, I write mostly for the German business daily Handelsblatt and the NZZ am Sonntag. Some of my other clients are: Welt, Welt am Sonntag, die Presse, Deutschlandfunk, CH Media, Bilanz Wirtschaftsmagazin Deutschland, Focus Magazin, Zeit Online and Flip.

I also write articles for magazines of cultural organizations and foundations like Weltweit vor Ort by the Max Weber Stiftung and the Libretto of the Deutschen Oper Berlin. In the past, I accompanied the project “Upgrade Democracy” of the foundation Bertelsmann Stiftung journalistically.
