About

💪🏻 Transformation doesn't stop at the first "no" - that's where it really starts. ✅ I am a target-oriented professional with a passion to shape, design, optimize and transform customer-centric supply chain, distribution and logistics operations on a global scale. ✅ With more than 10 years of hands-on experience and the ability to combine both strategic foresight and operational expertise, I have successfully established new conditions for businesses across industries and delivered results that make a difference – including proven P&L impact. ✅ I thrive to lead and develop cross-functional, intercultural, diverse teams and to foster a culture of continuous learning and collaboration, envisioning an environment where value-adding, robust supply chain capabilities drive performance and ultimately customer experience. ❔ If you are curious to learn more about me, let's connect and have a coffee chat.
