About

After business studies in my hometown of Ravensburg and a short stop in Berlin, Zürich became home for well over fifteen years - before I moved back to Ravensburg, where I’m based today. My path has led through sales and marketing roles across the IT industry: startups, SMEs and a certain global internet auction house.

I joined VSHN in 2018 as Chief Marketing Officer, moved into the management in 2020 and today serve as CMO & Partner - growing the leading Swiss DevOps company together with customers, partners and VSHNeers. What drives me: a genuine passion for IT, open source, and digital sovereignty - technology that people and countries truly own.

Away from work you will find me spending time with my lovely family, exploring the world with a camera or drone, on the football pitch, or teaching myself guitar and piano.
