Founding Partner of Hospitality Haus | Executive Search & Procurement Consultant
My Story
I was born in Germany and raised in Hong Kong, where I attended the German Swiss International School. I started working in hotels during school breaks and later trained at the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten in Hamburg.
I joined Westin International Hotels, focused on openings and operations, before returning to Hong Kong to work with a new hotel group. Mandarin Oriental brought me in to lead procurement, where I introduced joint purchasing and launched their first e-procurement platform.
Later, I supported Air New Zealand’s recovery program, then joined The Peninsula Group to lead group procurement and set up the Procurement Academy.
I moved into executive search with HVS, working with global hotel brands. After the 2008 crisis, I launched my own consulting firm and continued leadership work with Landmark Education.
Today, I lead Hospitality Haus. We focus on executive search and strategic support for hospitality companies, drawing from deep industry experience—not theory.
