About

For more than 9 years I have been a market intelligence expert working closely as business partner with partners and their project teams advising them on trends and developments in the Telecommunications and Software & IT Services sectors. As a tech-savvy professional I am passionate about digital tools and digitalization processes. What makes me very successful in my role is my eagerness and capability to rapidly learn and understand new (technical) topics and translate them in an understandable and condensed way into strategic recommendations. I am a highly motivated individual with high willigness to learn, with hands-on mentality and strong analytical skills enjoying the collaboration with colleagues with different cultural and professional backgrounds. For my professional future, I am looking for positions (e.g. customer success manager) in technology companies where I can inspire customers to adopt digital/modern work tools and enable them to operate in a more efficient way through digitalization. I will be more than happy to support the public sector, especially schools in their ongoing digital transformation.
