About

With over 10 years of experience in retail, I have worked across various industries, from fashion to interior design. After successfully completing a dual study program with Inditex, one of the world’s largest fashion retailers, I moved into category management. There, I was responsible for developing assortments, analyzing online performance, planning quantities, and implementing strategies. I enjoy identifying trends and optimizing product selections. Since January 2025, I have been working as a Non-Food Buyer at Netto Deutschland (Salling Group), focusing on assortment strategy, supplier management, and category performance. Currently, I reside in Berlin and am open-minded about connecting with new people. Additionally, I am a passionate cyclist.
