Executive & C‑Level Consulting

I bring more than 20 years of consulting experience, partnering with leaders on high‑stakes decisions, complex transformations, and technology‑driven growth. I have worked with companies in various capacities, including (alphabetically): Amazon, Daimler, Heidelberg Printing Presses, Kredible, Macy’s, SF Express, Siemens, and Volkswagen (VW), as well as a variety of banks and trading firms.

I am positioned as a management and C‑level advisor with very strong technical depth. Typical counterparts include CEOs, CTOs/CIOs/CDS/CAIOs, Heads of Risk, and Product/Operations leadership.
