Summary

I combine creative design expertise with a deep understanding of digital transformation, product and the future of work. My work focuses on optimising processes, tools and services, and empowering teams to innovate and adapt. As a certified design sprint facilitator and digital transformation manager, I help organisations unlock future capabilities and drive meaningful change. My experience spans the media, digital and creative industries, from launching Germany's first HR subscription service with GLUU, to teaching at universities, to leading award-winning design teams at VIVA. I develop strategies for tools, teams & products, always with a focus on making organisations fit for the future. I bring a curious, experimental approach, an entrepreneurial mindset, hands-on leadership and a passion for empowering people and organisations to thrive in change. My interests revolve around areas such as AI, no-code and low-code tools, vibe coding and digital in general; I like to try out new tools and opportunities on my own and am not afraid to venture into new subject areas.
