I'm a Berlin-based journalist, editor, and political sociologist with 26 years of experience across the journalism board. I've worked in news (AFP Moscow), reported the Second Chechnya War (ZDF, France 2, The Moscow Times), and led Germany's largest English-language magazine for 20 years as its Editor-in-Chief. Today, I teach journalism and critical media and coordinate a cross-border investigation team evaluating mainstream media coverage of Gaza across France, Germany, and Italy.

ENDORSEMENTS
Nadja is one of the best editors I ever worked for. Restless, thorough, and always interrogating, she will force you to find the most original angle. If anyone can get the best out of your journalism - whether it’s pitching, features writing, investigation or interviews - it’ll be her.
Ben Knight, Deutsche Welle, Guardian, News Statesman, Der Freitag
When I first met Nadja I didn’t have any journalistic experience. She saw my potential and taught me the foundational journalistic skills that helped launch my career. Nadja is a highly skilled journalist, and combines both modern and traditional reporting approaches, giving her a unique teaching lens. She taught me the interviewing skills needed to be a cutting-edge journalist in the modern media landscape. She is also the ultimate editor, greatly improving my writing. I’m forever grateful to have had her as my mentor and highly recommend her to anyone wanting to improve their reporting skills and learn how to make it in today’s very challenging yet rewarding journalistic industry.”
- Mary Biekert, journalist Bloomberg, NYC
Nadja’s kind and passionate approach, coupled with her intelligence , truly helped elevate the quality of my first publications. She gives very practical and to the point advice tried and tested throughout her years of experience. She mentors with sincerity. I wholeheartedly recommend Nadja to anyone looking for a compassionate and genuine coach in navigating the path to their first publication. She’s the person you want on your side.
