As the founder of Compliant Digital GmbH, I work as a data protection and compliance officer for companies that want to implement data protection and regulatory obligations securely and in a practical way. My goal: Compliance should be understandable, actionable, and audit-ready, without unnecessary bureaucracy.

So far, I have completed more than 50 projects, ranging from implementing data protection management under the GDPR, processing agreements, and service provider assessments to data protection impact assessments, TOMs, and compliance support for AI systems under the EU AI Act. My clients include organizations from the healthcare sector, the finance and insurance sector, as well as the IT and SaaS industries.

A key part of my work is raising awareness: I have trained several hundred employees and executives so that data protection is understood and applied correctly in everyday work. I have completed several audits by supervisory authorities without fines.

I combine a legal understanding with a practical view of IT and processes, so that the solutions can actually be used by the relevant departments.

Project Management

At ecoprotec GmbH, I worked as an external data protection officer and project manager, managing compliance and data protection projects from planning through implementation. The focus was on translating GDPR requirements into concrete project plans, processes, and responsibilities, so that departments and management knew what needed to be done and why.

The combination of data protection expertise and project management was the key factor: Data protection measures were scheduled, prioritized, and tracked throughout the project instead of ending up as an isolated mandatory task.
