About

I’m a marketing and influencer marketing leader with hands-on experience building end-to-end campaigns across DACH and EU markets. I’ve managed influencer collaborations, negotiated KOL partnerships, and used real-time analytics to refine strategy for strong ROI—while also coordinating cross-functional execution across paid media, social, SEO, and affiliate channels.

Across my career, I’ve worked in brand and growth roles spanning fashion e-commerce, automotive marketing, and consultancy work—developing KPIs, reporting, and strategic initiatives that boosted brand visibility and revenue streams. I enjoy turning data into action, creating compelling campaign activations (events, sponsorships, digital brand experiences), and supporting clients with structured account management and process improvements.
