Co-Founder of BYTE Challenge

In my full-time job at IBM as an Application Consultant, I developed the innovative continuation of our IBM internal Cloud Services & User Management administration tools for various project software. 
I also work in the TalentAdvisor working groups to make IBM more attractive as an employer. Of course, I am also involved in internal activities for students and pupils and support the planning of events.

Associate Application Consultant & Lead of the WomenInTech DACH

German Informatics Society

Within the Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. (German Informatics Society), I was able to achieve a lot in 2020 - 2022. As the spokesperson for the Young GI and board member, I brought the perspectives of GenZ into the association. 
As a speaker, I was able to help many people find their way, inspire them to get involved and strengthen their self-confidence. For instance, I started a series of events, the "STEM GIrls", which attracted over 350 registrations in the first year. The events serve to empower, find strengths and prepare young women and non-binaries for the professional world. 
I have also initiated and implemented over 33 digital events in these two years, including with companies such as IBM, Huawei Germany, McKinsey & Company, Netlight, Microsoft, Snowflake and Github.

Als technischer Betriebswirt in der Arbeitsvorbereitung habe ich einen maßgeblichen Anteil an 
der internen Produktionslogistik meines derzeitigen Arbeitgebers. Gewissenhaftes und 
strukturiertes Arbeiten, mit dem ich mich rasch in neue Arbeitsweisen einarbeite, stellt für 
mich deshalb eine Selbstverständlichkeit dar. Durch meine Weiterbildungen und mein 
aktuelles Fernstudium habe ich ein hohes Maß an Organisationsfähigkeit und Selbstmotivation 
erlangt. Diese Eigenschaften helfen mir in der Organisation der Arbeitsvorbereitung und dem 
Erstellen von Vor- und Nachkalkulationen. 
Teamwork und Empathie sind für mich im Berufsalltag, wie auch beim langjährigen 
ehrenamtlichen Engagement wichtige Pfeiler. Teamfähigkeit mit interdisziplinärem Fokus 
stelle ich z.B. seit 20 Jahren als Akteur innerhalb des Open Wind Orchestra der Musikschule 
Winnenden unter Beweis, bei welchem man nur als Ensemble etwas hörbar Schönes 
erklingen lässt – einer Gruppe ganz unterschiedlicher Musiker.
