When did you become interested in technology? What first got you interested in tech?
I had quite some contact with technology as a child through games and different activities. But it wasn’t love at first sight. It never occurred to me to pursue a career in tech. My passion wasn’t awakened until I entered the workforce. I had the opportunity to attend some innovation conferences like CES in Las Vegas. There I was able to experience firsthand what technology is capable of and how it affects our lives. The innovation and dynamism of the industry excited me. This experience has had a significant impact on my professional career.

During my studies in international business and economics, I was looking for a global company that I could write my master’s thesis with. I was given the opportunity to do so in the innovation department of Deutsche Telekom, where I also completed an internship and gained my first practical experience in the tech world.
After finishing my data & innovation-focused thesis, many doors opened, but the decision was not easy for me. While most of my fellow students went to management consultancies, I took my first professional steps at digital companies like trivago and Google. Initially, I worked as an analyst with a focus on product performance analytics, where I learned how to build and optimize digital products and use available data for innovation. I was excited by the diversity of topics, the learning opportunities, and the high-paced working environment.
