born as Sandra Walschek – October, 9th 1985
curiosity of life and its colourful shades mixed up with a holistic view brought me together with various people and their projects, mostly in early stages, to support their spark of the start.
My journey into the world of publishing started at the age of 19 years (2004) in Hanover/Germany at marketing agency bluhouse.GmbH where I dived deep into various fields of (social) media from print-magazines to podcasting. Back in my hometown Schaumburger Land in 2007 I continued with a Traineeship for “Foreign Language Assistant English/Spanish” and did translations English/German for clients later on. An inspired interest for writing and photography caused me to join a classical Volontariat. After these official 2 years of getting trained as editor, I continued as freelance journalist.
Journalism is a beautiful way to meet and discover people and their sense of being.
The study of different philosophies from psychology, buddhism, shamanism to daoism sent me back into my hands to create out of the most essential element of life – earth. clay. vessel.
