My name is Carina Dietze. I’m an internationally published journalist, translator, and copywriter. In 2023, I founded Moondust Magazine, an online publication that aims to explore the power and creativity of women in various subjects through the captivating lens of the female gaze.

I’m currently available for media and brand consulting engagements.

Portrait of internationally published journalist and writer Carina Dietze

I am based in Ottawa and my place of birth, Düsseldorf. While being bi-continental can sometimes feel somewhat draining, it is also a huge privilege and offers a unique perspective on current events and life itself.

After graduating with a degree in economics and cultural studies, I spent several years working in the buying section for one of Germany’s most renowned department stores, as well as a Canadian business that specialized in importing luxury interior goods. Over time, I became more fascinated with the consumer than consumption itself. I started observing my surroundings more attentively and wrote down my discoveries.

Sustainability

Renewables, e-mobility, and sustainability in many other forms are constant topics in my journalistic work. As a regular contributor for several publications of Burda, one of Germany’s largest publishing houses, I write about current events, new developments in science and economy, as well as political discussions revolving around the topic.

 

Female Empowerment

I have always been deeply passionate about empowering women's voices and promoting diversity in media. I truly believe that when women come together, incredible things can happen. Currently, I am working on the launch of Moondust Magazine, an online publication that aims to explore the power and creativity of women in various subjects through the captivating lens of the female gaze.

 

Pop-cultural Developments

I enjoy writing about stardom, short-lived trends, and other things that may be dismissed as superficial. I believe that we can learn a lot about our society when analyzing and reviewing pop-cultural developments. Therefore, I often partake in the public discourse via social media.
