With a passion for sustainability and experience in different management roles in the chemical and building industry, I joined KPMG in 2024 to assist companies in sustainable value creation and sustainability reporting. I focus on end-to-end CSRD and sustainability guidance for international companies in different industries. While coordinating KPMG’s ESG Center of Excellence, I enable companies navigating in the challenging regulatory landscape to solve any ESG related question in a lean and pragmatic way with our multi-disciplinary team.
