ABOUT ME

From WHAT IF

to WHAT’S NEXT


I've spent 17 years turning emerging opportunities into real business outcomes. I’ve worked across market research, strategic partnerships, and customer acquisition, always with a focus on spotting opportunities early and bringing people together to make them real.

Moving from Germany to Silicon Valley was a turning point in my journey, exposing me to new perspectives, fast-moving markets, and the energy of startup innovation, which continues to shape how I approach my work. It opened my eyes to how fast-moving innovation really works - and I've been hooked on that energy ever since.

I’ve partnered with startups on proof-of-concept projects, built strategies for emerging markets, and guided cross-functional teams through big, sometimes messy challenges. What I enjoy most is helping ideas move from the “what if” stage into something tangible - whether that’s a roadmap, a product, or a partnership that creates lasting value.

When I'm not working, music and dance are my creative outlets. You’ll also find me planning travel adventures, or supporting environmental initiatives that help preserve the places I love to discover.
