Beschreibung

I‘m a freelance consultant, design manager and digitalisation expert living in Munich.

As an entrepreneurial design manager I connect people and technology, business and change. I’m passionate about understanding the problem, creating strategies and solutions, and leading the execution with world-class product, service and organisational design.

In short: I’m enabling teams to achieve their best.

In my leadership and entrepreneurial positions I hired and led multidisciplinary teams to develop innovative, future-oriented and sustainable solutions. My job understanding was always to provide the space, culture, methods and processes to make new things happen.

Over the years I got insights into a wide range of companies, organisations, industries and markets.

Before starting my advisory business I worked six years as Director of Design & UX at ExB, a German B2B SaaS AI/ML company that processes text on industrial scale. Prior I co-founded and lead the Munich office for SinnerSchrader (now Accenture Song). My four years as Managing Director and Associated Partner at IDEO, the masters of Design Thinking, deeply influenced my understanding of the strategic role design can and should play.

With the ExB teams, I developed a generic, modular, trainable, browser-based AI platform to make the cognitive tools of the future a reality today: The Verstehmaschine.
