Summary

As a consultant based in Berlin with 15+ years of experience in design and product development, I specialise in working in cross-functional environments where design can catalyse the cooperation between product, marketing, sales, tech and business. I focus on guiding projects that may be ambiguous or unclear and require research, discovery, and strategy to narrow the focus. Such challenges may also involve multiple stakeholders, often involving conducting workshops and building storylines to communicate the project clearly, increase engagement and obtain endorsement. I help Product and CX Teams conceptualise and steward solutions to complex, ambiguous and multi-stakeholder challenges.
