About me

My name is VIOletta.

And I am many things.

 

Versatile, curious, lively.

I very rarely took the straight path, but preferred to try things out, experience them, learn from them.

Theory never really seemed as exciting to me as real life.

I learn by doing.

By falling down.

By getting back up.

By being right in the middle of it.

 

As the eldest and only daughter of five children, I grew up in Dübendorf, where I now live again. With my husband, our daughter, and our son.

Family and this role of motherhood mean a lot to me. And at the same time, I feel very clearly:

My life is so much more than roles, even though I have a great passion for acting.

My life is more than just a function.

And definitely more than expected.

I can't stand them anyway.

 

I love communication.

For as long as I can remember.

Talking, telling stories, singing.

Even though I didn't dare to do everything for a long time, and my voice only gradually finds its place again.

I'm on the go with it.

And that feels exactly right!

 

I like depth.

I like humor.

I like authenticity.

I'm interested in what lies beneath the surface.

Where the masks fall.

 

I see myself as wise,

not because I know everything,

but because I live what I pass on.

I reflect a lot, choose my words consciously, and treat people with respect and heart.

 

At the same time, I also know my other side: the desire to do everything perfectly. To want to be perfect and to hide when I feel I'm not. Then this initially fiery passion sometimes turns into paralysis. Out of fear of not being good enough. And suddenly I do nothing at all.

It's all the more paradoxical, then, that many still describe me as a "go-getter." But it's true. Because just as often, I'm the exact opposite: I simply start and follow my intuition. True to my favorite motto:

It wasn't smart – but it was awesome.

 

What fulfills me?

To see, to feel, to hear that my path, my way and my experiences touch or inspire others.

Then I know: I am exactly where I am supposed to be –

in the middle of life.
