Every application has its own unique story to tell, and to bring these stories to life, it's essential to focus on the right material properties. My role is to identify and innovate the best solutions for each client’s specific needs. With more than 15 years of experience, first as Head of Strategy & Business Development and now as Head of Product Management for SCHOTT ROBAX® and SCHOTT NEXTREMA®, I’m passionate about tackling challenges. I see overcoming obstacles as an opportunity to push boundaries and drive meaningful innovation. My expertise lies in helping clients bring their vision to life and stand out – especially in industries where material properties are critical. I work closely with customers, building partnerships that unlock the potential to achieve what initially seems impossible. In addition to supporting clients, I’m committed to motivating and guiding my team toward our shared objectives, achieving ambitious goals, and consistently delivering value. As a motivated and responsible manager, I excel at translating strategies into actionable plans that drive team success. Are you facing a challenge that requires an innovative material solution for extreme conditions? Let’s connect!
