The Mindset is built up over time.
I am a designer with profound knowledge in marketing and project management of digitalization projects. I possess an analytical, strategic and conceptual way of working. Design for me is the creation of interpersonal interaction and the creation of business value. I enjoy facing challenges with my rich knowledge in design, marketing, strategy, consulting and technology. My intrinsic motivation to understand new topics and my lack of shyness when faced with challenges is one of my strengths. I grow with my tasks and my open, transparent and clear way of communicating works.
Since 2005, I’ve gained valuable experience at different stages of my professional journey, enhancing my skills and work approach. I prioritize a consulting and design-oriented mindset to collaboratively develop unique solutions. The combination of my diverse skills consistently brings immense value to tasks and challenges, with each discipline contributing to a strong and valuable solution. I embrace lifelong learning, constantly immersing myself in new design topics to expand my portfolio and be well-prepared for future tasks.
Trust, close collaboration, and realistic timelines critical for good work results. An iterative work methodology helps to find the ideal solution for the task at hand. My approach is holistic, as new perspectives and innovative opportunities only develop as a result.
I believe that through communication, trust, honesty and hard work many creative and future-oriented solutions can emerge. The result of the collaboration shows in design, visual, strategic and business aspects.
My goal is to deliver customized solutions with the highest possible quality. My experience, knowledge and skills help me achieve this.
The results of my work should be long-term, sustainable, honestly thought through and strategically designed.
A well-structured and open process of creation is the basis for profitable and creative solutions in order to develop solid and innovative possibilities.
The constant and open exchange must flow into a possible solution. This part of the work is particularly important, I direct my focus on it.
Design isn’t just about making things beautiful;
it’s also about making things work beautifully.
Every step in my career is important and moves me forward.
In my work experience so far, I have learned that continuous development is crucial for a successful career. It is important to always take on new challenges and to continuously train staying up to date.
A holistic approach to problem solving is also essential. It is necessary not only to look at the immediate problem, but also to consider the long-term implications and possible alternatives. A comprehensive analysis of the situation and careful planning are therefore essential to achieve successful solutions.
In my previous assignments, I have been able to successfully apply these principles and thus contribute to positive results. I am convinced that this approach will continue to be the key to success in the future.

As a lecturer at BAW, I provided the students* with theoretical knowledge to develop creative approaches to solutions. The goal was to support them in bringing their concepts into a visual form of representation. For this purpose, the basics were created and the approaches of their term papers were discussed and debated. My teaching method is based on two components: firstly, the teaching of theory and secondly, the exchange and sharing of experiences. The 4-5 days in the semester were designed in such a way that the exchange was in the foreground, because I think that creativity and the understanding for it does not come from books. It has to be experienced and lived.
After BAW, I wanted to apply my newly acquired knowledge to projects. I was able to offer my clients the combination of consulting and design from a single source, which in my view is a gain for any company. Already during my apprenticeship I could convince the first customers of me and my concept and so I succeeded in starting my self-employment with a variety of different projects. I really enjoy advising customers and creating new things with them.
