About
Hi, I'm Anne 👋
I'm a strategic thinker passionate about bridging business and technology, energized by AI-powered, human-centered digital transformation. I love building a transformation strategy and then turning it into tangible results — by designing innovative digital solutions, working with stakeholders, and driving change & adoption.
With nine years of hands-on experience in a family business and two years in a corporate environment, I've developed an end-to-end operational perspective while digitalizing processes and strengthening procurement, inventory, and marketing capabilities. My academic foundation in Applied Economics, complemented by an international 3-Continent Master in Global Management, enables me to combine analytical rigor with pragmatic execution.
I thrive on efficiency, critical thinking, and cross-functional collaboration to solve complex challenges and enhance performance. Above all, I believe AI and digital tools deliver real impact only when strategically applied to the right business problems.
