What makes me
As a risk professional, it fascinates me to identify challenges. By using various kind of data and information. To understand where to focus to mitigate risk and create true opportunities for the business and the customers, consistent with their vision.

Being a Sparring Partner
Alone you can achieve little, together a lot. I am a motivated leader of diverse global teams in matrix organization. I had great experience and success when I worked in small teams of different stakeholders and experts. As a sparring partner I like to motivate and support my team members, identify together potential gaps to achieve set goals.
I prefer to work closely together between departments and with partners, than in silos.
International
I am a Swiss citizen, born in Lucerne.
I lived in Abu Dhabi/UAE and Marseille/F. Widely experienced in working in an international and multicultural environment with teams around the globe. And I worked for projects on 5 continents.
I prepared Private Equity owned companies for an IPO (at SIX) and M&A transaction. Worked for listed and privately held companies.
I am open to work globally & re-locate.
Customer focussed
The interest and needs of my internal and external customers are always my focus. I understand the different risk areas as enablers to reach defined goals. A main competence of a risk manager is to listen carefully. I was often able to anticipate needs and we introduced customer offerings in the area of prevention and helping to bring them ahead of the curve.
The power of Water
I started swimming when I was a kid, continued as a lifeguard and played 20+ years team sport waterpolo. Activity in the water or overlooking sea/lakes in a nice spot gives me energy.
I continued to work in voluntarily as Board Member for the Swimming Club Lucerne, first as finance responsible then as actuary.
Multicultural & Diverse
Working with global team members include different perspectives, cultural aspects, languages and priorities. As a leader I tried to be a sparring partner to my colleagues, also for their private worries. It suits me that I am interested in different cultures, countries of the world and being part of a diverse community.
Exploring mountains
To hike in the mountains a good risk assessment is essential and to prepare adequately. Weather changes can be sudden. But if done properly, I just enjoy hiking with friends or the quiet peaceful nature which gives me the energy for the challenges of everyday life.
