About

Leaving my last President & Managing Director role was a bold, intentional move - driven by a desire to grow, lead with purpose, and build cultures where people truly thrive. With me in charge, things change: strategy sharpens, teams energize, and execution becomes real. I bring clarity in complexity, trust in leadership, and momentum where it’s needed most - grounded in a physics mindset and sharpened by IMD executive education - a rare combination driving strategy and precision. I will deliver: • Clear strategic direction and decisive execution • Empowered teams built on trust and ownership • Efficient operations with lasting results • A culture of accountability, growth, and stretch With 20+ years of global executive leadership, I’ve led large-scale transformation in US, Japanese, and German corporate cultures, I bring a unique ability to bridge perspectives, foster trust, and build inclusive, high-performing teams across borders. I currently serve as a board advisor, investor, speaker on leadership, AI, and transformation. Let’s connect if you're seeking high-integrity leadership and transformative board-level impact.
