Summary
EMPATHY | COURAGE | FUTURE-ORIENTED - these are not just values I stand for, but they shape my work and attitude. I'm passionate about development and sustainable solutions - even off the beaten path. Unconventional routes? Gladly! I think through details carefully but never lose sight of the big picture. Perfect solutions are great - but sometimes pragmatism is needed, and that's where I'm strong: implementing smart, doable solutions. "A step outside my comfort zone" - I've taken on this challenge time and again, professionally and personally. I'm strong in concept and hands-on in execution. Digital as well as analog, with insights from agency and corporate worlds, nationally and internationally. A respectful, appreciative approach is as important to me as good team spirit. I believe work can be inspiring - with meaning, joy, and perspective.
Excellent communication skills, strong sense of responsibility, structured time management. And above all: empathy and a fine sense for people.
