About

As Head of B2B & Revenue Operations at Freenow, I simplify the complex. My role is to take data and transform it into clear, strategic steps that drive revenue growth and operational excellence within B2B business travel and mobility tech. I'm fueled by compelling storytelling, strong brands, and a commitment to premium, exclusive products—the kind where you notice the great haptics, clear sound, and thoughtful visual design. This drive for high-quality outputs, instilled by my South-German heritage, is paramount in our dynamic tech environment. My ideal start to the day involves hand-brewed, fruity & natural filter coffee
