That’s me.

Hi! Nice to meet you! I’m Isabel and I’ve been a journalist for almost ten years. For most of my career I was a crossmedia editor for the Focus brands, working on numerous video, podcast and social media projects – sometimes in front of the camera or the microphone. I still love building new formats and pushing great topics forward – so much that I went freelance. My career also includes time as a producer for advertising and a little time in PR.

My journalistic focus has so far been business, stock markets and finance – but there are many topics close to my heart. I’m very interested in literature, psychology, theatre, classical music, languages and foreign countries, which is why I’ve spent longer periods in Portugal, France, Russia and Brazil.

I look forward to hearing from you! We can start with a free initial call.
