Summary
After completing my degree in Business Mathematics, I began my career at the auditing firm KPMG. In total, I have worked for over 22 years at Big 4 companies and consulting firms in areas including IT security, process audits, risk management and internal audit. Between 2015 and 2020, I worked at the international audit network BDO, where I also focused on new technologies such as blockchain and artificial intelligence. I was BDO’s data protection officer for Austria for 2 years. From May 2020, I focused on founding the local Women in AI Austria association, where I was Vice President until early 2025. In October 2020, I founded my startup Compliance 2b GmbH, where I operate an internal reporting channel (Whistleblowing Channel) for companies. Using trustworthy AI, it supports the customer company’s case handlers in analyzing reported concerns. In April 2024, I founded PaiperOne GmbH with 2 other founders. The company is developing an AI compliance platform to support the legally compliant implementation of the EU AI Act, and offers workshops and training in the field of AI. I am also co-author of the book „KI-VO“, published in November 2024.
