Self-driven digital native with entrepreneurial mindset and “can do” mentality, holding a master's degree in economics and an MBA from a Top10-European business school.

I started my career in IT & Telecommunications, specializing in the areas of smart cities and smart mobility eventually, first in Rotterdam/Netherlands (working for Dutch Telecom KPN), since 2018 in Munich/Germany, where I joined AID/Argo.AI (Volkswagen's subsidiary for Autonomous Driving). In November 2020 I joined CARIAD, the software subsidiary of Volkswagen.

My field of work couldn’t be more exciting: The 4 mega trends (Connected, Autonomous, Shared, Electric) are on the verge of disrupting mobility as we currently know it. I believe that they are going to change the world for the better, and I’m glad to be a part of it.
