More
I liaise and navigate all parts of Google and our business partner ecosystem to bring together the most relevant people and solutions, which is aligned to both the client's short term objectives as well as their long term vision. My ambition is to support 10x scaling and to accelerate innovation that positively impacts their business objectives. Life isn't always about work, so when I'm not in the Cloud I like to travel, explore the outdoors and generally stay active & social.
