Profile

Structured. Credible.
Internationally grounded.

Management Engineering graduate from Politecnico di Milano, with a career at the crossroads of industrial execution, corporate strategy, and digital transformation.

I thrive where complexity is highest — coordinating plant launches across continents, governing CAPEX portfolios from feasibility to benefit tracking, and aligning stakeholders from factory floor to boardroom.

Before the corporate world, I co-founded a tech startup and led it as CEO for three years. I also refereed 200+ football matches — which proved to be an unplanned but intense school of real-time decision-making and stakeholder management.

Member of NOVA top talent community and Global Shapers (World Economic Forum), contributing to sustainability projects in NRW.
