Trust In More Than 25 Years of Experience

Have an Digital-Industry Veteran on your Side

In 1998 I launched my first website. In 2001 my first Online Shop. A few hundred more of each should follow. In the years coming I managed to gain trust from major Brands and Enterprises building their Digital Strategies and Teams.
End of 2017 I decided to take a break from life in Enterprises and return to my roots running my own business and start new ventures.
My clients value my broad experience (Digital, Marketing Technology, Social Media, eCommerce, Media, IT, Digital Transformation, Team Architecture) combined with my very entrepreneurial spirit to deliver.

Some words on myself...

Private

I am a big fan of National Parks and Nature. As much as I enjoy the silence and peaceful surroundings I am curious to explore the treetops with my Drone and do some stunning photos.
Travel is another hobby which is luckily well to combine with my profession. I recently captured some breathtaking pictures in New York City using an experimental 360° Video Camera which enabled my older relatives to explore the City back home using my VR Headset.
Finally, there is Music which is a key element in my life. I learned the piano as a child and ever since have been into this world of emotions and sounds. Feel free to follow me on Spotify as you like.

Business

With only six years of age, I had my first computer, taking only a few more years to learn to code and finally starting my own, first business. An Agency for Web Technology and Online Shops which I ran from 2001-2010.
Beginning of 2010 I became Global Digital Manager for Henkel AG,
2013 Director for Digital Marketing, eCommerce & CRM at L'Oréal,
2015 CDO - Chief Data Officer at L'Oréal,
2017 CDO - Chief Digital Officer at Beiersdorf AG,
End of 2017 I decided to be a full-time independent Advisor, Speaker & Digital Talent Specialist and started an undisclosed StartUp to be revealed later in 2018.
