I have more than 23 years of experience in corporate strategy and investment banking, with a focus on M&A and corporate finance transactions across a wide range of industries. I support my clients in navigating transformation along major megatrends through acquisitions, divestitures, and financing.
Key areas include diversification into new fields of business, expansion into new regions, and focusing on core business activities. This often involves technologies such as AI and blockchain and their application in the industry, digital business models, as well as energy transition, sustainability, and ESG in the context of green financing.
Thanks to my experience in various roles, including at Accenture, Commerzbank, the investment firm KGAL, Clairfield International, and most recently as a member of the executive management and Head of M&A / Corporate Finance at Helbling Business Advisors, I possess extensive banking expertise and capital market insight.
Having worked on both the buy-side and the sell-side, I bring multiple perspectives to my advisory work - an approach that is also recognized by media and industry professionals.
Specifically, I support my clients in the following areas:
I’ve always been deeply interested in understanding organizations and systems — and thus their culture — down to their very DNA. What defines a company, and how can I optimize it?
Initially as a strategy consultant, and later as an M&A and corporate finance expert. In order to sell a company or determine its true value, I need a deep understanding of its business model, operational performance, and financial strength.
I support my clients as a consultant, certified coach, and trainer in their entrepreneurial decisions. This often leads to personal and, above all, long-term questions that may arise well before any deal is on the horizon.
In order for the possible to arise, the impossible must be attempted again and again.
