A Trusted Partner
for Critical Moments.

Whether navigating disruption, scaling a business, or making high-stakes leadership choices, you gain an experienced, independent voice who's fully invested in your success.

In my career, I’ve built companies, led teams, sat on boards, and advised leaders through moments that matter.

Green Turtle brings all of that experience to one purpose: helping bold decision-makers create strategic clarity and real-world impact — even when the path isn’t obvious.

CONSULTING

As a consultant, I partner with business owners and executives to tackle key strategic challenges.

 

Change and disruption are a threat only for those who wait passively and hope for the storm to be over.

 

For those leaders who take the courage to actively shape the future of their companies, amazing opportunities will open up.

ADVISORY

As an advisor or non-executive board member, I strive to create value for the company.

 

My aspiration is to give guidance and valuable input, as well as to challenge owners, fellow board members, and executives when needed.

 

I will thus stand up and speak out — in the best interest of the company.

INVESTMENT

As an angel investor, I support
early-stage ventures with
more than just capital.


I look for passionate founders solving meaningful problems through scalable, tech-driven business models — particularly in SaaS and AI.

When there’s a strong strategic fit, I invest time, expertise, and perspective to help turn ambition into traction.

With over 20 years of international leadership experience across media, technology, consulting, and SaaS, I founded Green Turtle to help leaders navigate complexity, drive transformation,
and unlock new growth.

My journey began in journalism, evolved through executive leadership at Deutsche Welle,

and deepened through an MBA and coaching certification from INSEAD.

 

At the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), I worked closely with executives at leading international companies to drive strategic value and deliver lasting impact — an experience that shaped how I approach complex challenges and high-stakes decisions.

 

As an entrepreneur, I launched Green Streams from scratch — turning an idea into a thriving
enterprise SaaS business. I built the team, raised capital from angel and institutional investors,
and led the company through all early growth phases.

I’ve also served on the boards of tech companies, which gives me a unique perspective when working with both executive teams and startup founders — understanding the pressure at the top, and the realities on the ground.

Through Green Turtle, I work hands-on with business owners, executives, and founders in critical moments of change — offering a rare blend of strategic thinking, operational insight,
and leadership coaching.

I also invest selectively in early-stage SaaS and AI startups, supporting ambitious founders with capital, sparring, and perspective.

 

My role is always to create measurable value through honest conversations, clear direction,
and the courage to act.

 

Let’s explore what we can achieve together.
