I am a seasoned design and content executive with extensive experience in software and hardware product development, marketing, content strategy and production, and large scale organizational and operational leadership.

My professional journey—from visual and media arts, to marketing, to shaping cutting-edge software and hardware—reflects a steadfast commitment to design excellence and a strategic focus on delivering exceptional customer experiences. At Google, where I led interface and interaction design including UX research, and was responsible for delivering the biggest and most impactful redesign of Android since its inception, my team and I successfully fused design and technology, establishing Android and Pixel as industry benchmarks. This pursuit of innovation and quality in design defines my professional ethos, driving the mission to create globally impactful products.

Previously, during a transformative nine-year tenure at Apple, I architected the creative strategy and execution of video and motion for Apple’s media products and services. I managed the design and implementation of features across Apple’s software and hardware ecosystem, earning numerous international design patents for my work. Additionally, I built and led creative teams to produce 360° marketing content for global campaigns, seamlessly aligning brand storytelling with product innovation.

Prior to Apple, I worked in Los Angeles as a producer and director in film and television, collaborating with industry legends such as Lawrence Kasdan and Tom Hanks. Beyond Los Angeles and San Francisco, I have lived in München, London, and Boston, where I earned a summa cum laude degree in visual and media arts from Emerson College. Originally hailing from Bavaria, I enjoy Autobahn, Lederhosen, skiing, Kraftwerk, Bauhaus, and Leberkäs.

My career has been marked by spearheading innovative brand-building strategies and refining design systems for cutting-edge technology products, elevating the customer experience by blending aesthetics with functionality to meet evolving demands. And as a member of the Board of Trustees at the German School Brooklyn, I contribute to non-profit governance, striving to ensure educational excellence while giving back to my community.
