About

Chemistry fascinates me since my high school days. As a scientist, I have a natural curiosity and a drive to explore new horizons. Throughout my career, I have consistently aimed at making changes for the better. Having had the opportunity to live and work in diverse cultures, I appreciate the immense value of different perspectives and the power of diversity in driving success. The chemical industry will play a key role in driving positive change and at BASF, we have an exceptionally strong team to deliver the solutions our customers need. We are essential to enabling our customers’ transformation to a lower CO2 and more circular world. This mission gives me a great sense of pride and purpose.
