Early life
Schäfer was born and raised in Frankfurt, Germany. She grew up as the older of two children, with her mother Ingrid and her father Claus-Peter, who was a pilot. As a child, Schäfer began her career as a model and actress and studied ballet, while also doing theatre.

Later, she worked internationally as a model, being represented by agencies in Europe, Asia and South Africa. Her modeling work has included campaigns for designers and sportswear companies such as Ferrari, Gucci, Nike, Wolford, and Triumph. In the 1990s while studying psychology at the Goethe University Frankfurt, she focused more intently on her acting career and studied drama. She works worldwide in films, television, and stage productions.
She has also sung background vocals for various bands, including Joe Cocker and Vanessa Mae. Through her passion and participation in extreme sports, Maxim magazine voted her as the "Action Girl".
After living part-time in Asia and Spain, she moved in 2008 to New York City and founded the film production company YMC Films. In the States, she has been successfully working as both an actress and a producer.
