About me

View profile
Hi, I’m Manuel!

I’m 20 years old and live in Berlin. I graduated from high school in 2022. 
I’m an absolute goofball and someone who loves to laugh — a lot! Not a day goes by without me dancing and singing. I love trying out new things and am always looking for opportunities to grow.

In addition, I have been pursuing part-time studies in Biochemistry at the Freie Universität Berlin since 2022. I have a passion for research and exploration, qualities that also deeply engage me in character development.

I’ve been acting for eight years now, and I don’t know any other art form that excites and moves me as much as film. I also sing and write songs and literature.

Enjoy browsing through my profile!
For more photos and videos from my life, check out my Instagram account.


I'd also be very happy to be a scene partner for auditions. :)
