After graduating with a Diploma in Educational Sciences in 2008 at Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Juliane worked in the field of family therapy, youth counselling and social assisted living in Germany. She has a Diploma in Pedagogy (Diplom Pädagogin) and while working, she completed an apprenticeship and got certified in systematic/family therapy.

Juliane's experiences of living and working abroad started after graduating from high school when she was working as an au-pair for three children of the ages of 1, 4 and 6 in Vermont, USA. That great experience strengthened her wish to work with children and families as well as her desire to work abroad and experiencing different cultures and mentalities. During her studies at university sheI spent half a year in Washington, USA as an intern organizing a social camp for children infected by HIV and their families and training their counsellors, applying and developing on her knowledge gained of social sciences at Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg in Germany.

Together with her husband, Juliane moved to China in 2015 and she was working at another international school for 4.5 years, teaching children aged 16 months in Nursery to almost 6 years in Pre-K and Pre-school.

Juliane joined BSB Shunyi in 2020 as a German Teacher and was excited to take on the role of Head of German Primary in 2022. She is looking forward to form positive relationships with the children and their parents and the other teachers and BSB team and looking forward to inspiring the children to learn, explore and develop.

Personally she loves to travel and explore new cultures, foods and different ways of living. She enjoys running, biking, hiking, reading and being with friends.
