About

"Bridging the gap between engineering, design, and business strategy." With nearly three decades of experience in the product development (mechanical engineering and packaging industry), I lead innovation projects characterized by creativity, technical expertise, and a mission for sustainability. In my current role, I am responsible for product development across locations in Switzerland and Germany. My focus is on creating unique solutions that prioritize user-friendliness while meeting the environmental challenges of our time. I see myself as a bridge-builder: I speak the language of engineers, master modern management methods (EMBA BFH), and possess a deep understanding of holistic product design (MAS Design/Innovation). My mission is to optimize the interface between design and technical feasibility to continuously improve the functionality and aesthetics of products. I lead with a coaching mindset, fostering a collaborative environment where we help customers differentiate themselves in the market through truly unique product solutions. Core Expertise: Strategic Innovation Management, Leadership & Coaching, Sustainable Product Design, Engineering/Design Interface Management.
