My Story

I was already interested in economics and business administration when I was at business school in Esslingen near Stuttgart. In business studies, I learned how companies work and what they need to survive and grow successfully on the market. Economics showed me how countries and companies are interconnected and interdependent on a global level. This gave me an eye for geopolitical connections. I incorporate this view and understanding of the big picture, coupled with many years of marketing experience, project diversity and numerous stays abroad, into my daily work.

After studying International Business Administration in London and Hamburg, in 2006 I started working for an online marketing agency (ethority, Hamburg) with a focus on Web 2.0 marketing. It very quickly became clear that Web 2.0 (today: social media) would lead to a disruptive change in communication in the private and business environment and thus also in marketing. It was an exciting time for me, as I was directly involved in all areas of the customer life cycle after my studies: customer acquisition, strategy and action concepts, project management and marketing analytics.

After three exciting years (2009), I moved to a larger digital agency (Virtual Identity, Freiburg) as a consultant for online communication. My job was to work with multinational companies to pave the way for an open communication culture. Social media has meant that companies no longer have sole sovereignty over communication and have to think about how they can redesign communication with their target groups.

After six years at agencies (2011) and countless projects, it was time to move to the corporate side in order to develop topics and projects in a more sustainable way. My first station in the media environment was at a TV station (arte, Strasbourg). Initially, I was responsible for the development and rollout of a bilingual social media strategy, then I became Product Owner for the ARTE apps (iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows 7, Windows Phone, Xbox, HbbTV).

Three years (2014) later, I focused on conversion optimization for an online store in the telecommunications industry (1 & 1, Karlsruhe). During this time, I became aware of the potential of marketing analytics in combination with A/B testing. It's amazing how reliable numbers and number-driven website optimizations can increase sales.

From 2016 to 2021, I was responsible for international marketing communication as a team leader at a B2B company (SICK, Freiburg). Here I was able to form a strong team from a heterogeneous group. Together as a team, we implemented global B2B marketing campaigns and improved content quality.

I have been working as a freelance consultant, project manager and startup founder since 2022.
