I’ve spent almost three decades in IT, always drawn to the places where technology can make work better for real people. Long before cloud, governance, and AI became mainstream, I was already exploring how to make these technologies practical, secure, and human‑centric.
As the Principal, Co‑Founder & CEO of atwork, I help organizations modernize how they operate—bringing together Microsoft 365, Azure, security, governance, and AI to create workplaces that are built for the future, not just for today.
I’m a long‑time Microsoft MVP and have been a Microsoft Regional Director since 2015. I also founded the Global AI Community – Vienna Chapter to give people a welcoming, accessible place to learn about AI and experiment with what’s possible.

Whether I’m consulting, speaking, writing, or building community, I want to empower others to understand technology deeply and use it confidently. I hold a master’s degree in International Business Administration from the University of Vienna—but the real learning has come from helping people navigate change every day.
