About

As the Chief Financial Officer of Fresenius, I am fact-based and numbers-driven – yet my number one belief is in culture and people. The right team with a shared vision can move mountains – and have fun doing it! In this respect, I feel privileged to be part of the fantastic #TeamFresenius. This team of over 177,000 colleagues across the globe is united by one mission: to save and improve people’s lives. Every year, around 450 million people use our medical products and services, and approximately 26 million patients receive care in our clinics and other healthcare facilities. Before joining Fresenius, I spent 14 years in investment banking. While I've always been passionate about finance, working in healthcare has added a new dimension to my career. Witnessing the positive impact we can have on millions of patients worldwide truly inspires me.
