She began acting at twelve, joining a Viennese acting agency and gaining her first on-camera experience.
Through her teenage years she worked across theatre and film: several short films, the feature German Horror Story (with an international festival run) and music videos for notable artists.
In 2024 she became Head of the independent film collective Fieberträumen, which explores unconventional visual approaches and stories that push creative boundaries. The collective has since produced several large-scale short films and two features. One of them, The Art of Survival, Tabea wrote, co-directed and starred in as the lead; it is now in post-production. Tabea is currently preparing a third feature film, which is in pre-production at the moment.
