Degree in agricultural sciences with emphasis in animal nutrition
Doctorate in animal nutrition physiology
For a total of 6 years with bosch Tiernahrung as product manager
Also 2 years as product manager for vegetable raw materials and special components in animal nutrition
What I do at bosch:
A significant part of my work as a product manager is the development of new recipes for dogs and cats. This involves developing completely new lines or individual new products for existing food lines.
The basis of this work is the evaluation and analysis of raw materials. Only those who know the raw materials know how to combine them optimally. Of course, the latest scientific findings are always included in the development.
Advising customers by phone/ email and training and lectures for customers and dealers complete my tasks.
Private life:
I am a real northern light and come from Schleswig-Holstein. On a small village I grew up with dogs. My heart dog is called Rufus and is a 13-year-old giant schnauzer mix senior.

Study of Equine Business B.Sc. at the HfWU Nürtingen-Geislingen
Study of Sustainable Agriculture and Food Management M. Sc. at the HfWU Nürtingen-Geislingen
Working for bosch since fall 2021
What I do at bosch:
I spend a large part of my working time developing recipes for new types of dog and cat food. In order to provide the best possible care for our pelt-noses and velvet paws, not only the wishes of the consumer but also new scientific findings and alternative protein sources (e.g. insects) are taken into account. In addition, the evaluation of analyses of the products as well as the monitoring of our meat raw materials are part of my tasks.
My hobbyhorse is advising customers on the phone or by e-mail. Nothing gives me more pleasure than clarifying questions in direct dialog and developing solutions to feeding problems with your pets.
Private life:
Originally, I come from the southernmost point of Germany - Lake Constance. My love for animals and my passion for dogs moved me to enter the field of pet food after my studies. Always at my side - my mixed-breed dog Flora, who comes from Romania. A little whirlwind, she sweeps through the department every day and always brings a smile to our faces.
