“After studying technical biology at the University of Stuttgart, which I completed with a thesis at the Institute of Biochemistry, I worked at a medical care center in the field of anesthesia. Here I experienced first-hand the daily routine in the operating theater. I gained my first experience in project management and public relations during my almost two years at BIOPRO Baden-Württemberg GmbH as editor-in-chief and project manager. Since December 2017, I have been working at BioRegio STERN Management GmbH as a project manager and in the press department. Here I coordinate the partners in some large collaborative projects. Above all, bringing together different stakeholders within a project and developing new concepts make the work particularly exciting for me”

"By participating at the trinational study course of the École supérieure de Biotechnologie de Strasbourg, I was able to gain first international study experience. After graduating with a diploma thesis in the area of Virology and Gene Therapy at the University of Michigan, I developed a DNA microarray for rapid antibiotic resistance detection during my doctorate at the Institute of Technical Biochemistry in Stuttgart. The following ten years I worked in the product and marketing management in the field of diagnostics at Greiner Bio-One GmbH, which produces multiplex analytical methods for use in food safety, human diagnostics and product safety in the pharmaceutical industry. Starting January 2017 at the BioRegio STERN Management GmbH, I will use my international experience in the development, application and marketing of biotechnological methods to network, attend and support companies in the medtech and biotech industry in the region. As project manager I support the regional companies’ prospects for automated applications and the development of new products."
