About

I’m a general and operations management leader with 25+ years of experience turning complex, ambiguous business situations into practical execution. I’ve led multinational service delivery and transformation programs (about €120M portfolios), aligning budgets, workforce planning, KPI/SLA governance, and operating-model design to consistently improve outcomes.

I’m particularly focused on decision-ready transformation: quantifying trade-offs, identifying gaps in assumptions, and translating strategy into scalable workflows and governance that teams can execute. As a certified AI Consultant, I also evaluate AI-generated operational plans and business workflows for feasibility, financial soundness, scalability, and risk—so technology adoption translates into real operational impact.
