There, Bridget Breiner created several leading roles for her, such as Juliet in “Romeo and Juliet”, Miranda in “Prospero's Island” and Hermia in “A Midsummer Night's Dream”, and she also danced the title role in the world premiere of Luiz Fernando Bongiovanni's “Alice in Wonderland”. She interpreted Livia in “Ruß - Eine Geschichte von Aschenputtel”, Desdemona in “Tragedies of Othello” and was seen in “Sweet spell of oblivion” by David Dawson, Marco Goecke's “Sweet Sweet Sweet” and “Indigo Rose” by Jiří Kylián. She is the winner of the 2016 Gelsenkirchen Theater Prize.
