With over 17 years of experience steering global brands towards innovation and strategic growth, my career has been a testament to the power of forward-thinking in the dynamic realms of business development, key account management, and innovation consulting. My roles have taken me from the strategic leadership at BASES and Nielsen, navigating Fortune 150 companies through digital transformation and product innovation, to regional business development leadership across Europe, cementing my expertise in identifying and cultivating growth opportunities in complex markets. Currently, I'm channeling my passion for sustainability and technological innovation into exploring how businesses can pivot towards more sustainable practices without sacrificing profitability or innovation. This exploration during a purposeful career break has enriched my understanding of sustainability, AI, and their intersection with business strategy, positioning me uniquely to guide organizations and individuals through this pivotal transition. Personal Interests: Beyond my professional pursuits, I am deeply committed to personal growth and well-being, embracing practices like Qigong and Yoga, and recently completing my first marathon. These disciplines have taught me the importance of resilience, focus, and the sustainable balance between personal and professional life. I also enjoy playing Poker, reading, and spending time with family and friends.... Why I Mentor: My decision to mentor stems from a belief in the transformative power of sharing knowledge and experiences. I've benefited from mentorship throughout my career and am eager to give back, guiding others through the complexities of navigating career transitions. I am particularly passionate about mentoring professionals aspiring to make a tangible impact through their work as I have done with many mentees throughout my career.
