Über mich
I'm an ESCP Europe alumni with a Master in Management, formerly working as the General Manager / Country Launcher at Odokar, an online driving school that aims to fundamentally revolutionize the German driving education by making it more digitally accessible and affordable. As of 2020, I am managing KOMI-Epices, a company that tends to implement tasty change in the very traditional spice sector. With our spice blends, every dish will become once again tasty. I am always interested in meeting new people in order to share experiences and exchange best practices. 👉Feel free to reach out! 👈
