About

I’m an Industrial Engineer (Business Engineering), graduated from the Bern University of Applied Sciences in July 2026. I work at the interface of engineering and commercial decision-making — turning market research, data, and business cases into clear product recommendations. In a year-long project with Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems I went deep into the U.S. ophthalmology market. I run student marketing for Red Bull Switzerland and grew my own social-media channel to 10,000 followers. I’m curious, structured, and motivated by medical-technology innovation. Native German speaker, fluent in English and French.
