Bio

I am a Berlin-based healthcare executive working at the intersection of digital health, medtech, and life sciences for almost two decades.

I founded FTWK in 2009 and scaled it into a digital innovation studio that ran through 2017. Today I work as an independent operator — embedded in client teams, with a healthcare network and a roster of specialists I can mobilize when the mandate needs them. From strategy to execution.

My work spans corporate development, strategy and innovation, and product and venture building across Diagnostics, MedTech, Pharma, Care, and Research.

Mandates have included Roche Diagnostics, BIOTRONIK, Bayer, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Sandoz, Helios Kliniken, Charité / BIH, and Boehringer Ingelheim.

I have been an angel investor since 2016 and am a member of Angels4Health. I co-founded STEM4Health Berlin and have mentored founders through G4A, Vision Health Pioneers, Hacking Health, and Startupbootcamp Digital Health.

What I bring

Sector depth, strategic clarity, venture methods, and enough range to move between startup, corporate, investor, and research rooms.

Corporate development I help identify, shape, and move new business fields, partnerships, ventures, and growth opportunities forward.

Strategy & innovation I work close to executive sponsors, R&D, product, and commercial teams when new opportunities need direction and momentum.

Product strategy I turn broad ideas into clearer users, use cases, value propositions, roadmaps, and testable product decisions.

Venture building I help teams move from opportunity space to thesis, pilot, team shape, and first route into market.

Business development Partnerships, market access, buyer logic, and the work between interest and signed momentum.

Network Access to people who can help: founders, researchers, operators, investors, and healthcare decision-makers.
