About Me

I’ve always been fascinated by how systems shape the way we work, decide, and connect. In school, I was equally drawn to computer science and business strategy, which led me straight into Information Systems.

Over the past 7 years at tado° GmbH, I supported internal IT operations and digitalization initiatives, gaining a deep appreciation for scalable tools and streamlined, automated processes. My academic journey culminated in a Master's in Information Systems, during which I tackled projects ranging from user-centered app design to enterprise AI integration.

I’m especially passionate about digital transformation, automation with purpose, and data-informed decision-making.

In my free time, you’re likely to find me 20 meters underwater. As a SSI Divemaster, I have logged more than 125 dives on 3 continents.
