As a concepter, consultant and curator, I work at the interface between art and business. I curate exhibitions and projects both independently and as part of overarching initiatives, and develop ideas for innovations.
My approach – in strategy and in my own artistic practice – combines associative thinking with a keen eye for hidden potential. With an academic background in art history, philosophy, and museology (University of Heidelberg, École du Louvre Paris), alongside qualifications in digital transformation and business, I merge humanities-based approaches with innovations in technology and their economic implementation.
A selection of my artistic and curatorial projects can be found under Insights. Upon request, I would gladly share a portfolio showcasing additional professional experience from the creative industry, strategy consulting, and innovation development.
