Summary

Through my experience in different industries and roles, I have learned to navigate both the technical and the business/management world. I speak both languages and bridge the gap between you.

I make sure that software projects are successfully commissioned, designed, and carried out, without requiring clients to have IT or software expertise.

In various projects, I've learned that each client prefers a different level of detail. From "just do it, I don't want anything to do with it" to "I want periodic reports and to be fully involved" – everything is possible.
