I'm an Enterprise Service Management consultant with 20+ years of experience that runs the full arc — from the shop floor to IT consulting. I started in manufacturing (process control & quality assurance), moved into application development and data engineering, led an IT applications team, and today I help organizations design and optimize their IT Service Management processes.
That broad path is exactly why I'm comfortable translating between operations, engineering, and business — turning technical capability into working business processes.
- Currently consulting on Matrix42 / Enterprise Service Management (ESM) & ITSM, with Nexthink in the mix
- Background in data engineering, ETL & business intelligence (R, Python, QlikSense)
- B.Sc. Business Informatics (FernUniversität in Hagen, part-time alongside work)
- Always learning — currently sharpening cloud (GKE), agile (SAFe) & AI skills
