Summary

As an SAP consultant in many national and international SAP rollouts, functional extensions, and go-lives, I have built valuable application knowledge and gained process expertise in sales, logistics, and purchasing.

In many projects, I worked with nearshore and offshore development teams. For the past 6 years, I have focused mainly on S/4HANA implementations using an agile approach.
