About me
Welcome to my online portfolio!
My name is Anna and I graduated from university in 2024 with a BA in English and Creative Writing and have since worked as a Co-Editions Junior Account Manager at a children’s publisher!
This online portfolio is by no means a necessary add on to my CV, but it was a fun project to prove to myself that, yes, I an draw a pigeon and create a website.
If you haven’t had a chance to read my CV, then I am happy to send it to any prospective employer via LinkedIn.
As you might have gathered: I love a creative project.
This website was another mini creative endeavour — designing the home page, drawing those little illustrations and finally getting to see it all come together, was incredibly fun!
I am proud of getting to share my work on here, and I hope you enjoyed reading it as well.
Okay, what else?
My former manager always called me “legend” and my current one told me that they would be “happy to have me back” if I ever moved back to Germany, which does not sound like much, but might be one of the greatest German compliments.
I am a native German speaker, but ever since moving to England for university, my brain cannot stop thinking in English. Even my dreams are all in English at this point. I often have to explain slang words to my mother. Some of them stick (everything is an ick to her now) and some of them don’t (she is yet to use slay correctly in a sentence).
I can yap about my favourite topics for ages, including but not limited to: the book that I am currently reading (The Invention of Curried Sausage by Uwe Tim), pigeons, Taylor Swift lyrics, and the importance of community.
If any of this intrigued you, and you feel like I could be a good fit for your company, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
