In 2003 Maria worked in the editorial department of the online magazine ZOON of Volkswagen AG, the first German-language youth portal with live web talk and social TV. She studied Fashion Journalism and Media Communication with a focus on Marketing and PR at AMD Hamburg.

Anne is working with Frohe Botschaft since 2021. As a PR and Social Media Consultant, she transforms today’s digitizers and their ideas into creative and approachable formats and content. She loves the challenge of addressing complex technology and sensitive cultural topics linguistically, to break with outdated boundaries and merge horizons. Before entering public relations, she worked as an online assistant at Westdeutscher Rundfunk’s Kulturlabor for three years and developed her journalistic skills as a presenter and Head of Services at radio station bonnFM. Anne studied Romance studies with a focus on linguistics as well as public law at the University of Bonn.
