Summary

I feel at home on the crossroads of IT and marketing. I have successfully worked as agile product owner, been a product line manager in the SAFe agile corporate context. I have managed products as a product manager and projects as a project lead and have successfully brought digital solutions to life against all odds.

I support companies in digital transformation and help companies, consultancies and start-ups to shape the future. I have worked in cloud based IT development projects as well as employed Agile, DevOps & Service Design methodologies.

I develop creative concepts and brand strategies. For digital projects, I create meaningful innovation and work on IT architectures. I can excel in critical, fast moving hands-on projects, low-budget survival mode startups just as much as I can unblock corporate political standstill between departments & escalations.

I think out of the box with an entrepreneurial approach to create a pragmatic next level result.

I have been working in different roles as a consultant for over 20 years for customers in finance, automotive, travel, FMCG & IT. I have supported brands like CARIAD, Volkswagen, BMW, MINI, Mercedes-Benz, Allianz, e.on, RWE, Lufthansa, Deutsche Bahn, Microsoft, Airbus, Penny, Opel, Deutsche Telekom, Haspa - Hamburger Sparkasse, Deutsche Bank, comdirect, bwin, delivery hero, Krombacher and others.

I have led operative teams of up to 25 people in my roles in the past and enjoy being part of a team where delivering software & results despite obstacles & challenges is a cultural value.
