About Me

Hospitality with passion – results with understanding

With over 40 years of international experience in hotels, restaurants and innovative hospitality concepts – in operational roles, key management positions and consulting – I bring a real passion for the hospitality industry to every collaboration.

I support small to medium-sized hotels in translating ambitions into clear, actionable steps. My approach is engaging, pragmatic and results-oriented. I combine strategic thinking with hands-on implementation – always focusing on the guest experience and the human aspect.
