Summary

Innovations & Trends Creative – Emotionally intelligent - Critical Thinking - Versatile. These words, amongst others, may describe me best. Since my fields of interest vary as much as my past practical experiences do I am capable of adapting to and understanding (most) business problems and challenges. With 7 years+ broad expertise within the cosmos of marketing, sales, project management, branding and business consulting I am curious to learn about and support (new) businesses, ideas, innovations, technologies, and challenges. Above all, working with premium brands and focusing on a b2c context comprises the majority of my past experiences. I am especially interested in the WHY of an idea, business case, or startup. Trying to foster a user-centric approach favoring painkiller over candy. Always zooming out for the bigger picture perspective and challenging the status quo. Equipped with emotional intelligence and empathy I find it easy to approach people, convey them of my idea or getting various parties to work together.
