Please feel free to contact me via email or LinkedIn; I would be pleased to hear from you and explore cooperation opportunities.
I am a mid-level law enforcement and public administration professional with over 20 years of experience in operational leadership, police training, and international cooperation. As a Kriminalhauptkommissar and graduate in Public Administration (Dipl.-Verwaltungswirt FH), I have successfully led teams, managed projects, and contributed to both national and EU-level initiatives.
My professional focus lies in bridging operational expertise with strategic objectives—especially in areas such as international police cooperation, capacity building, and the implementation of EU internal security standards. I have participated in EU and UN missions in post-conflict environments and served as a certified CEPOL trainer for European law enforcement cooperation and leadership development.
I bring strong interpersonal and intercultural skills, combined with hands-on experience in Twinning, TAIEX, and institutional networking. I am committed to supporting resilient, transparent, and effective public institutions—especially through training, project coordination, and international knowledge exchange.
Fluent in German and English, with working knowledge of Italian, I am open to international assignments and motivated to contribute to collaborative, future-oriented solutions within the European security and governance landscape.
