Most of what I do centers around communication and collaboration. I believe that language shapes reality, and that it is helpful to use the inner, subconscious knowledge of the body as additional data in order to find good solutions for any challenge.

My approach is user-centered, hands-on and creative. Because results get better when people apply all their senses and have fun.

I am a networking person and part of an international community of design thinkers. From 2020 until mid 2023, we held a weekly online gathering Wednesday Web Jam, which we developed into an experimental learning platform with a virtual and international team.

Through this collaboration, I got to know reshift.us and now work as their partner for the UK and Germany.

I gradually grew into facilitation and organizational development, having started in public relations at the Münster press office (1997-2009), where I covered the entire range from daily editorial work to internal communication and to crisis communication. Before that, I did my PhD, mainly in New Zealand, about the Waitangi Tribunal, which changed the way oral history is being appreciated.

I have three grown-up children, love to work in diverse and intergenerational teams, I speak English, German and Spanish and some French. For 8 years, I've organized TEDxMünster, was the licensee until the end of 2023 and still engage in curation and speaker coaching.
