Jakob Milzner

Journalist

Jakob Milzner was born in Münster in 1992 and grew up under the local skies of drizzle and church bells until he left the city to study communication and media studies. At Leipzig University, he researched, among other things, when and why people lose their trust in the media. From 2021, he did an internship at the Mitteldeutsche Zeitung in Halle before graduating from the Reportage School in Reutlingen in 2024. Since 2025, he has been working as a freelance reporter for various newspapers and magazines based in Leipzig.
