I am a digital innovator, essentialist, explorer and sailor.

I’ve been passionate about 📱technology since I started my first web-company in 1999. My mission is to help my clients all over the world solving real life problems with state of the art technology and make their everyday more productive. I am thrilled to 👨🏼‍💻 develop best user experience of excellent tools on a high technology level.

My main focus is on 💻 IT & technology consulting, the development of digital innovations in change and transformation processes, and digital strategy development and conception. In addition, I am a 🎤 speaker & coach/trainer for digital change & transformation and 🏫 Lecturer at Kiel University of Applied Sciences for innovation management and internal (innovation) communication.

I have >20 years of experience in advising medium-sized companies and international Dax / MDAX 💼 corporations, including at Kohtes & Klewes (now: KetchumPleon / Ketchum), K12 Agency for Communication and Innovation (Managing Partner) and ECC Innovation. I build digital products and solutions on top of various technologies, especially open source projects.

I am always open to new 📑 concepts and technologies. 70 percent of my time is reserved for client projects, whereas 30 percent of my time is dedicated to evaluating/exploring new technologies, testing software, and working on my own products.

I’m always looking to 📖 learn and 🛫 travel, work on different sites and sometimes on my ⛵️sailing boat 'MISS SOPHIE'.

Passion. People. Performance.

 

Digitale Innovation

I advise and support organizations to understand future markets and trends and to use new technologies effectively. To do this, I analyze data with data science and use individual software applications.

Business Model Generation

Innovative, future-proof business models are digital and are based on platforms. They use network effects and are developed as or with MVPs as prototypes. The goal: scale up and grow quickly.

Technology

I am thrilled to develop best user experience on a high technology level. I am interested in technologies such as blockchain (HLT), machine/ deep learning, data analytics and microservice architectures.

 

Essentialism

Minimalists are the new avant-garde. Essentialism focuses on the essentials. We collect moments, not things. And we think about what economy and society look like in a post-growth world.

Post Growth

Unlimited growth in a finite world is impossible. Our belief in eternal growth, in money, in consumption is pointless. Through the post-growth and common good economy, money and consumption (again) become a means to an end.

Hacking

Cybersecurity is relevant in the context of digital transformation. Hacker attacks will increase. As a member of the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) and Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), I deal with attack vectors and prevention mechanisms.
