Summary
Bridge-builder between people, technology, process, and vision
As a graduate engineer in communications technology, I combine deep technical understanding with over 15 years of experience in IT project management and consulting. My focus is on the digitalization of the public sector (OZG) and optimizing complex business processes according to ITIL.
I make visions tangible: Using agile methods, precise requirement engineering, and modern human-AI-supported visualization, I create clear structures for international stakeholders and cross-functional teams. Whether as a technical project manager, business analyst, or lecturer – I stand for solution-oriented communication and the sustainable enablement of organizations in digital transformation.
From the first idea development to the final rollout, I support my clients. I use visual thinking and AI-supported visualization to make complex visions tangible and secure decision-making processes through precise analysis and documentation.
I offer you a combination of engineering precision and modern digital creativity. My clients benefit from accelerating complex decision-making processes: By using AI-supported visualization, I make abstract IT visions immediately tangible and ready for consensus for all stakeholders. You get not only structured end-to-end project support from analysis to testing but also a bridge-builder who moderates communication between the business side and IT, minimizes risks through precise requirement engineering, and methodically guides teams safely to rollout.
