With over 15 years of experience in data center operations and digital transformation, I am deeply passionate about energy efficiency and green technologies. I am driven by a strong interest in the digital revolution and strategic innovation, focusing on sustainable solutions that create real-world impact.

My mission is to design and develop platforms that align seamlessly with business needs, leveraging human-centric thinking, cutting-edge techniques, and agile methodologies. By working closely with clients, I help them achieve their project goals and implement information technology solutions that are both efficient and effective.

My vision a future where infrastructure and technology are transformed through sustainable IT processes. My goal is to create platforms that are simple, user-friendly, and sustainable—bridging the gap between environmental responsibility, aesthetic design, business strategy, and technical execution.

Throughout my professional career, I have created an event that reached its third edition, the FutureCongress.Digital and the ASTRID innovation HUB,

ASTRID iHUB, established in 2019, was created in partnership with organizations like the FIWARE Foundation, NVIDIA, and Dell Technologies to support innovators, startups, and organizations driving digital transformation. Based in Wolfsburg, it serves the Northern German region and extends its impact far beyond. Through ASTRID, products and processes can be reimagined to proactively address digital challenges with innovative solutions. In 2020, ASTRID iHUB evolved to become a FIWARE iHUB, and in 2022, it achieved the distinction of being designated a European Digital Innovation Hub.

Building on the innovations fostered by ASTRID iHUB, FutureCongress.Digital was launched as a platform dedicated to advancing the digital transformation of cities, municipalities, communities, and industries. This initiative brings together experts and decision-makers from administration, politics, business, and science across diverse sectors and disciplines. The inaugural FutureCongress took place in 2020, laying the foundation for an annual gathering that drives collaboration and progress in digital innovation.
