Bio

After completing my dual bachelor's degree in business administration at Deutsche Telekom, I decided to pursue a master's degree in management of medium-sized companies and took a position as a working student at futureSAX, the innovation platform of the Free State of Saxony. These experiences have already opened up a wide range of opportunities for me and have further shaped the path I am currently on. I now work as a research and teaching assistant at MCI. In my private life, I am characterized above all by curiosity, openness, and joie de vivre. I am always a positive thinker and love reading and writing. In my hometown, I have been active in sports acrobatics since my childhood and still have a close connection to my club.

I'm passionate about

Responsible business: Sustainability & Female Empowerment

An idea worth spreading

Be kind to the people and world around you. Show empathy to each individual and don't forget how unique and valuable you are.

Areas of expertise

Change Management, Event Management, Moderation, Project Management, Sustainability

The TED story

I first came into contact with TED during my bachelor's degree, as my professor regularly incorporated TED Talks into his lessons. Since then, I have developed an interest in TED, and as part of my work as a student trainee, I had the opportunity to attend the TEDxDresden community event, where I met many inspiring speakers on stage. I am now based in Innsbruck and am currently planning to organize my own TEDx event together with my colleague.

Maybe something I'm not good at: bowling. If you go bowling with me, the other person is guaranteed to win.
