»The sum of the many small details makes an event process perfect. For me, having all of them in view beforehand is the challenge with every new project.«

Months of preparation, weeks of voting, days filled with rehearsals – everything boils down to that one word: GO. No “once more, please” or “let’s try another camera perspective” ... the show begins! Now everything fits together into one big whole. I don’t want to miss those moments when a team of specialists creates an unforgettable experience together, for visitors and organizers alike. This goal is my passion and my motivation.

My Profile

Training as a photographer and marketing communications manager, self-employed in both areas for years: No doubt that is the foundation of my professional work in event direction. Every event project follows a strategy and has a message that it should convey. Today this is happening digitally before all the world as well as live on location.

Key specialist for technology – and for the people in front of and behind the curtain: As every professional at the event has his or her own means and possibilities, knowing all of them and combining them to achieve 100% effect is the task I set for myself.

At the Internet Governance Forum in Berlin and at the Sales Summit in Bangkok: Apart from 10+ years of international experience, it is probably the ongoing positive feedback from the organizers that motivates me to make the impossible possible again and again.

Things I have to be all the time: Networker, caretaker, narrator, visionary, customer whisperer, organizer, strategist, manager, responsible, string puller, relax therapist, key figure, Aries (Chinese: Dragon), perfectionist.
Things given me for this: Adaptability, passion, enthusiasm, empathy, temperament, initiation strength, dedication, methodology, attention to detail, logic, confidence.
Things always love to hear: Burns for the project, 100 percent, keeps calm, keeps an overview, energy, personally dedicated, in his element, obsessed, agile, tech-savvy.

»No, I’m not really a chef in the kitchen. But maybe I should try it more often? Because, in principle, great cooking is not so different from what I do: Take the best ingredients and do everything possible to create a masterful experience!«

»American Football is my second passion. Will the Raiders win the Super Bowl again? The quarterback makes the difference. The strategy is fixed before, but his performance on matchday makes the result, like that of the event director on the venue floor.«

»In a classical concert I’m always fascinated by the conductor’s ability to make fantastic music even though he or she doesn’t touch any instrument. It’s the talent of the specialists that the conductor puts to work. It’s what I try to do as well.«
