Career
Annika Pampel is a working actress and a director. Storytelling and human relationships are her favorite subjects to explore.

Annika was raised in Germany. She was born behind the wall on the former east side of the country, which impacted her understanding of freedom at a very young age. Thanks to this early awakening, Annika now appreciates the gift of freedom to the fullest, accepting every challenge and chasing down life's potential every day.

After studying Theatre History and Directing in Bayreuth University, Annika received a Fulbright scholarship at Indiana University to continue her education. She then completed her education with a Masters in Film Directing at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia.

Within the past year, Annika has had acting roles in the TV shows MOB CITY (TNT), THE ORIGINALS (The CW), and a role on HINDSIGHT (VH1). She also booked her first leading role in the action film EXPENDABLE ASSETS as Sdanka, a tough assassin in the fight against human trafficking. Although she already had a background in Shotokan Karate, Annika learned many new fight styles to supplement her character. Through training for this film and doing most of her own stunts, she also became an expert in fight choreography and weaponry.

Annika currently lives and works out of Los Angeles, enjoying every project for their limitless learning opportunities.
