Summary
Digital technology fascinated me as a child. I’ve kept this passion for everything digital and its impact on society ever since. As a consultant, analyst, and project manager, I help small and medium-sized businesses leverage the advantages of digital transformation through greater digital and innovative expertise. My focus areas are data organization, process optimization and automation, and work organization. As a software engineer and architect, I turn resulting projects into reality based on your vision and optimized for your team’s needs, or I create meaningful prototypes and MVPs. Thanks to my experience in IT security, Security-by-Design and Privacy-by-Design principles are always front and center in all my work.
AI? Absolutely. Generative AI has become not only a key tool in my daily work but also part of my solution portfolio. Trustworthy AI and compliance with the AI Act? Of course, a matter of course.
With my knowledge of behavioral and communication psychology and my ability to explain technical matters simply and accurately, I always manage to bridge the gap between technical and business stakeholders.
What does your tomorrow look like? How do you solve the complex challenges of the digital age? How will you become digitally agile? I look forward to answering these questions together and guiding you on your journey to a digital future.
