Anna is Big Life's Digital Marketing and Design Specialist, bringing international experience in driving organizational growth through web design, branding, strategic campaigns, and compelling visual storytelling for mission-driven organizations.
Anna's career began in the fashion industry as a designer for Marc Jacobs, H&M, and Gap Inc., she then transitioned to UI design and digital marketing with Amazon Fashion before moving into the nonprofit sector. Her cross-industry background uniquely positions her to communicate Big Life's conservation mission through creative and engaging digital experiences.
Growing up in a small village in the volcanic Eifel region of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, Anna developed a deep love of wildlife and the natural world. Her parents nurtured this connection, taking her foraging and teaching her the names of plants and birds as they explored the forests together.
Now living in the Catskill Mountains of New York State, Anna has deepened her understanding of the interconnections between healthy ecosystems and thriving communities. As a Zen meditation student, she brings mindfulness practice into her work and daily life. Through hiking, foraging, birdwatching, and permaculture gardening, she has cultivated an authentic connection to the land that informs her approach to conservation storytelling.
