Even since I started my 1. business life as a banker I‘ve always been engaged in sustainability. So I wrote by thesis about ecological criteria and worked on sustainable investments. In my 2. business life in Retail and Fashion I‘ve been now for 12 years, thereof the last 2.5 for hessnatur working on repositioning the brand.
questionnaire
1. What was your very first job? What does it feel like to look back at it now?
My first real dream job has been my responsibility for hessnatur, which is much more than a job. It‘s a huge responsibility for a strong heritage and a great honour for me working not only for the market leader in fair fashion but rather doing sth. very meaningful with great people.

It‘s every day the wonderful responsibility to work in 100% adherence with our 43year heritage.
3. How did you discover that the creative world is right for you?
For me a live without creativity is no live. A job without creativity as well.

The will and passion do develop brands, people and organizations. The will and passion to make things always better and different than anyone else.

Listen to and talking to a lot of diverse people.
