Summary

From the first idea to implementation, I guide the entire design process, focusing on thoughtful, clear solutions that deliver real value. It is important to me to work with honesty, openness, and transparency. I believe that every team member should have the opportunity to use their strengths and grow. Good communication and strong collaboration are key for me to achieve great things together. To continuously improve my team leadership skills, I successfully completed the Leaders Academy and actively apply the methods I learned there in working with my team. In private, I am also a team player – friends and family come first for me, and in the same way I support my team, both in front of and behind the scenes.

Over the past five years, I have had the pleasure of working with exciting clients such as Amazon, Ben & Jerry’s, and Wondery, leading a variety of projects. I am especially proud of my work for Junge-Bäckerei, where I helped build and further develop an independent B2C e-commerce shop over more than five years.

I bring comprehensive technical skills, from the Adobe Creative Suite to Zeplin and Sketch/Figma, to project management tools like Jira, Air Table, and Asana. These tools allow me to run creative processes efficiently and ensure the final result always meets the high standards I set for my work. I selectively integrate current design trends to preserve the brand’s essence while adding fresh impulses.
