Her career started as an intern at the ARD talkshow Hart aber Fair (English: Hard But Fair). Later, Müller worked for public television stations Phoenix, DAPD News Agency, Financial Times Deutschland and public broadcaster WDR Fernsehen.[2]

Since 2013, Müller has been the political editor at the Berlin office of Der Spiegel.
