About Me
Independent fractional COO with 15+ years of experience leading complex, cross-sector projects, from startups and public companies, agencies to DAX-listed corporates. I work internationally, from Europe to the Middle East, connecting strategy to execution.
I specialize in tech and innovation and thrive where structure meets uncertainty. I’m known for handling the most challenging clients and situations, calm under pressure, focused, and always delivering. My superpower? A colleague called it Yoda energy: nerves of steel, a structured mind, and the ability to get things done.
I’m connecting strategy with execution, C-level expectations with on-the-ground realities, and diverse teams with a shared sense of ownership. Known for navigating ambiguity, I bring clarity, structure, and results to fast-moving environments.
Trusted by founders, boards, and investors to step in when traction is critical, whether it’s launching a new venture, scaling operations, or translating strategy into action that actually ships.
Dear to my heart — I mentor and coach founders across multiple incubators and accelerators, sharing knowledge and learning from every challenge.
Always learning. Always building. Always making things happen.
My Leadership Philosophy & Work Ethic
Leadership, to me, is about bringing specialists together and creating the clarity, trust, and space they need to do their best work. It’s not just about delivering results — it’s about understanding individual needs so the team can learn, grow, and simply have fun along the way.
My core strengths are empathy and communication. As trivial as it may sound, next to fancy tools and frameworks – I believe success, in leadership and building relationships as well as companies, comes down to how we communicate, listen and understand people’s needs.
I speak the different languages of a team — connecting the dots and translating diverse expertise into successful outcomes.
With an entrepreneurial mindset, I’m unafraid to dive deep into new challenges and swim in ice cold water. I’m highly adaptive to change, learn quickly, and go the extra mile to make things happen.
“No guts no glory.”
