TV presenter

My passion for football:

Germany’s most popular TV football presenter.


I’m looking forward to the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2011™ because...

"it will be another milestone in the history of German sport, and - especially thanks to the opportunities presented by the medium of television - one that can emphatically prove to the world that, after the men's World Cup, women footballers are also in a position to ignite tremendous passions throughout the country".


Career highlights:

Sports presenter for Sat 1 from 1999 to 2001 (including highlights shows ran and live ran). Presented various sports programmes for Premiere from 1999 to 2003, and light entertainment shows for ZDF (2002 and 2003). Presenter of ARD Sportschau (ARD sports show) since 2004.
