leadership vision

I want to address complex regulatory challenges to drive change in the healthcare system for the benefit of the society. In my role as a supervisor and leader, I seek to open doors so that individuals can find their own path and develop their own skills. The better trained and prepared the future experts are, the more we can achieve together.

my story

As a member of the fifth cohort of the Sciana Network, we are working on the One Health challenge.

On a micro level, I find it exciting to work with inspiring, motivated individuals from Germany, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. On a macro level, the Sciana network opens many doors for me to achieve my leadership goals.
