His fundamentally holistic approach to solutions is future-oriented and geared towards social change. With his finance and banking background, he prefers to design internal and external transformation processes as an interim CFO or interim CEO.

As an entrepreneur for SMEs, the interim manager stands for entrepreneurial initiative. He has repeatedly successfully spun off subsidiaries for Stadtwerke München, developed and implemented business models and implemented corporate services processes. For example, he set up a greenfield IT service company for the digitalization of educational institutions in a municipal environment in order to enable effective and efficient processes with shared services outside of municipal structures.
