Summary

I am an experienced marketing and business development specialist with proven expertise in strategic and operational brand and campaign development. Successfully executed projects for B2C brands such as ING, comdirect, NIVEA, Miracoli and Lindt & Sprüngli, as well as B2B campaigns for DHL and Repower, demonstrate my ability to implement complex marketing strategies tailored to target audiences. After a successful detour into business development, I would like to return to marketing in the future, which is where my passion lies.

As a marketing generalist and experienced consultant, I bring solid project management expertise. I coordinate different work streams with confidence, always keep an overview, and work with a pragmatic, results-oriented approach – achieving concrete progress motivates me most.

Sustainable success is achieved through collaborative partnerships on equal footing. Open exchange and transparent communication therefore form the foundation of my work.
