Biography

Practice/Work

For 5 years I have been working at Bloom Partners(Munich) on projects related to Digital Transformation in customer-centric industries with international clients such as a Global Leader in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods, or a ‘Unicorn Startup’ in the Financial Services sector.

Previously I worked for 3 years  in creative and marketing roles in the Entertainment industry for leading firms such as Bertelsmann AG/BMG (Munich) and the Sony Corporation of America/Columbia Records (New York).

I love sharing my perspectives on Innovation in Creative Industries and am currently writing for platforms such as ThriveGlobal and Addicted2Success.

For almost two years I have also been writing a German column as an expert commentator for one of the most popular weekly magazines, FOCUS online, where I discuss digital innovation and their impact for media and consumer good firms.

Academic/Research

I am a PhD student with a research emphasis on digital centric business models, affiliated with the research group on innovative value creation at the Philipps-University Marburg (Prof. Clauss). In contrast to my consulting activities, where abstraction and reductive perspectives are key in order to generate executable advice, I enjoy the complexity and the qualitative perspectives that my research facilitates and promotes. You can find an overview of my publications on the faculty website.

previously:
M.A. in Governance (Political Science)
