Willing to talk for nonprofit.
I am a dedicated sustainability professional with experience in project management, consulting, research and entrepreneurship, passionate about creating sustainable cities with a high quality of life for all inhabitants. At WeMaCo I am leading the area of Urban Transformation. We offer consulting services to city changers and also provide coaching for personal transformation as part of our systemic transformation approach. I am currently in charge of organising the CREATE Convention, which serves as a starting point for a community for inner and outer transformation.
Feel free to contact me on the topics mentioned on my profile and related topics.
I graduated with a BSc. in Business Administration from the University of Mannheim with a focus on Nonprofit Management, followed by an MSc. in International Sustainability Management at ESCP Berlin/Paris.
Professionally, I worked in different positions in sustainability consulting and I have conducted research at TU Berlin on sustainable consumption and at the Institute for Ecological Economy Research (IÖW) on postgrowth/degrowth, engagement, associations/unions and socio-ecological transformation. Now, I am focusing on sustainability transformations of cities and regions, for which I am also employing my competences in social entrepreneurship, project management and leadership.
I am active politically and in civil society, e.g. in environmental and nature protection and with the climate protection organisation "3 for Climate e.V.". I try to shape my life according to my sustainability principles and to encourage others to join.
Correspondingly, the topics I offer in the field of sustainability are diverse:
- building/rebuilding ecologically and socially just cities and neighbourhoods (focus)
- further developing regenerative ways of thinking and living
- achieving a socio-ecological transformation of our society
- to bring about a rethinking in our economy and politics
- protect our environment and create a pleasant climate
- inspire people to new behaviour and utopianism
- expand and share personal development and (intercultural) communication
