📈 Data informed (MA in Economics) + ❤️ User Obsessed (UX Certification) + 👷♀️ 10+ years hands-on experience
As a Product Manager with over 10 years of experience across D2C, SaaS, and two-sided platforms, UX Certification, and an MA in Economics, I work directly with founders, agencies, and cross-functional teams to guide products from discovery through launch and growth. I have led platform and integration initiatives for global health and wellness brands, hotel technology ecosystems, and marketplace environments, translating business challenges into clear roadmaps, delivery plans, and live features. I offer a balance of strategic thinking and hands-on execution to drive results.
What I Help With
Discovery & Optimisation
• Customer & stakeholder interviews
• Competitor and positioning analysis
• UX audits & journey mapping
• Conversion and funnel optimisation
• Experiment design & rapid testing
Product & Delivery
• Roadmap definition & backlog structuring
• Feature scoping & requirements (PRDs, specs, user stories)
• Agile delivery & sprint leadership
• Cross-team coordination (design, engineering, ops)
• Go-to-market & launch planning
Project & Operational Execution
• Platform integrations & vendor coordination
• Marketplace and booking flow builds
• Process design & workflow optimisation

Real-life examples:
- MedKitDoc (Germany): Took over a team weeks before a contract-critical deadline. Shipped the product on time and secured the key deal.
- Amptify (USA): Repositioned a patient app into a complete B2B platform for medical professionals (teleclinic, booking, marketplace). This transformation contributed to Neurotone AI's acquisition.
- Jay Shetty Genius (USA): Built onboarding and feature adoption through JTBD interviews and A/B testing. Built and managed an internal dev team. Managed migration of data and users to the new platform.
- Marriott & Design Hotels (Germany): Integrated 100+ independent hotels into Marriott's global distribution ecosystem, leading onboarding, API integrations, usability testing, and training.
I’ve collaborated with founders, doctors, hotel operators, and celebrities, translating vision into structured execution plans that teams can actually deliver against.

I'm a bilingual French/German medical translator, proofreader, and language specialist with a background in anesthesia, working across clinical, pharmaceutical, and healthcare content. This clinical background means I don't just translate medical terminology, I understand the procedures, medications, and patient contexts behind it, so nothing gets lost or misrepresented in translation.
Whether you need a clinical document translated, a medical text proofread for accuracy, or patient-facing copy adapted so it reads clearly and naturally, I make sure your content communicates exactly what it needs to, with the precision medical work demands.
What I work on:
Medical translation (French ⇄ English, German ⇄ English)
Medical transcription & audio-to-text conversion
Proofreading & editing for clinical accuracy, clarity, and terminology consistency
Anesthesia & perioperative documentation
Patient information leaflets (PILs) & informed consent forms
Clinical trial documentation & protocols
Regulatory & compliance documents
Medical device documentation & instructions for use (IFUs)
Pharmaceutical labeling & packaging text
Medical reports, case studies & discharge summaries
Healthcare correspondence & practitioner communications
Medical journal articles & research abstracts
Patient-facing materials & health education content
Pharma & healthcare marketing content
Let's make sure your medical message is understood exactly as intended, in every language.

As a Social Scientist with a Magister Degree in Altamerikanistik (e.g., Anthropology), my professional journey has been a blend of academic exploration and creative endeavors. In addition to engaging in various artistic projects, I have delved into intriguing research on plant perception, conducted in the scenic landscapes of Switzerland.
My career reflects a versatile skill set that spans research, design, and customer service. I have consistently demonstrated my capacity to adapt, take on responsibility, and foster positive relationships with colleagues across all levels. In my previous role, my employer commended my work ethic, a testament to my dedication and performance. I am eager to bring the same level of commitment and excellence to the roles I will be undertaking.
Throughout my career, I have gathered diverse experiences that have honed my skills and expanded my capabilities. For instance, I have served as a content creator for Fanatee on Upwork Lanes, where I crafted engaging content in German to captivate audiences. I have also engaged in collaborative text editing for UK University UGC Platform Research, as well as research at UZH in Switzerland, showcasing my ability to work effectively in interdisciplinary teams.
Furthermore, my proficiency in narrative construction led me to create plots for games and quests, adding layers of depth and intrigue to interactive experiences. Additionally, my role as a German Editor for AI Written Texts in the health-care sector allowed me to ensure accuracy and clarity in technical content, highlighting my attention to detail and subject matter expertise.
As a creative content writer for word games targeting German-speaking audiences, I combined linguistic finesse with creative flair to deliver captivating content, as well as trained AI writing prompts and suitable answers for a ChatBot. Applying SEO I created headlines and snippets for a famous German Newspaper.
Moreover, I leveraged my analytical skills in tasks such as Gedichtinterpretation (Poem Interpretation), where I delved into the nuances of literary works to extract meaning and convey interpretation effectively. Additionally, my experience in crafting well-researched responses on health and fitness topics as a Quora writer underscored my ability to communicate complex information clearly and concisely.
Furthermore, my expertise extended to providing scientific plant descriptions for platforms like Picture This, where I combined my research background with a knack for clear and concise communication to enhance user experiences and knowledge.
