About me and my stance

Als zertifizierter Brain & Health Coach, Agiler Coach und studierte Informatikerin verbinde ich analytisches und wissenschaftliches Vorgehen mit praktisch anwendbaren Hacks und Strategien für Körper und Gehirn.
Meine Passion für die Neurophysiologie in Verbindung mit ganzheitlicher Gesundheit und das Wissen um brain-friendly lifestyle choices haben mir enorme Erleichterung im Alltag und auch in herausfordernden Situationen gebracht.
The combination of computer science and neuroscience empfinde ich dabei als besonders spannend: Auch wir haben Programme im Kopf, die mal bewusst, mal unbewusst ablaufen. Wir können diese Programme analysieren, Fehler eliminieren und neue Programme und Routinen installieren, die uns helfen, unseren Alltag auf Gesundheit, Erfolg und Produktivität zu programmieren.

Sharing these insights and helping people to make their lives easier, gives me great joy!

Primary and Further Education

TÜV certified Medletics Health Coach

The holistic training at the Medletics Academy transported deep, in-depth knowledge by several holistically thinking doctors and coaches on medical basics, training and nutritional sciences, psychology, regeneration, biochemical processes and blood values.
Above all, I was fascinated by the connections between the brain and the body and the neurobiological aspects: How does the brain work, how do I become a smart brain user, what processes take place in the brain and how does this manifest itself in the body? Why do we turn stupid when we are stressed and what can we specifically and effectively do about it?
By applying the content taught, I was able to help not only myself but also those around me to live a healthy, productive and brain-friendly lifestyle!

Lean & Agile Coach

I have several years of experience in individual coaching and coaching for teams in an agile environment. Agile transformations in particular benefit from brain-friendly design or can go terribly wrong if the neurobiological basics are not understood.
Ich habe die unterschiedlichsten transformativen und agilen Setups selbst durchlebt und begleitet und durfte in den Rollen als Scrum Master, Product Owner, Tester, Release Train Engineer und Lean & Agile Coach sowohl gescheiterte als auch erfolgreiche Veränderungsvorhaben erleben.

Certified Expert of Applied Neuroscience

Die Ausbildung zum „Certified Expert of Applied Neuroscience“ der Eilert Akademie vermittelt ein umfangreiches Verständnis der Funktionellen Neuroanatomie und der zugrunde liegenden neurowissenschaftlichen Konzepte. Sie zeigt fundiert auf, which neuronal processes take place in the brain, was genau zu veränderten Bewusstseinszuständen führt, wie sich Gewohnheiten entwickeln, warum sie sich so schwer verändern lassen und what really supports change processes. Die Ausbildung vermittelt die Idee der bio-psycho-sozialen Wechselwirkungen und zeigt anhand der Psychoneuroimmunologie how mind, brain and body interact with each other and are partly dependent on each other.

What I believe in

I look at things from different perspectives and see possibilities and opportunities for development even in difficult situations. I believe in experiments and the power of small steps towards a brain-friendly lifestyle through the power combination of brain & body. I love learning, growing and using and supporting my body and brain in the best possible way. I strive to find efficient solutions to the problems of today's busy world.
