Summary

I act as a trusted advisor at the interface between business and technology: digitalization, automation and process optimization are tools I use to make operations simpler, faster and more scalable. With my background in transformation/change and business operations, I combine a business perspective with strong execution skills.

What sets me apart is my ability to quickly build solid relationships and structure complex topics clearly. I bring in creative ideas, spot strategic levers and drive initiatives forward with energy, confidence and clarity. The result is solutions that not only work but also deliver real added value.
