ABOUT
Me

Great things never camefrom comfort zones

About me

Ever since I was a young girl, I have had a great passion for sport. My degree in sports management has given me invaluable knowledge that I didn’t have during my time as a professional athlete. Now that I have experience on both sides – as an athlete and as a sports manager – I want to pass on my knowledge and offer support wherever I can. I know that the sports business can be challenging, but it’s important to never give up and to believe in your dreams.

My school
career

Between the ages of 12 and 16, I attended a sports boarding school in Kreuzlingen, which was still called NET at the time and was thus able to combine sports and school.

After that, I concentrated on tennis for 1.5 years at the Olympic training center in Salzburg. During this time, I also tried to complete the Matura via the AKAD online program. In the end, however, I decided to abandon this path and return to Switzerland, where I completed my commercial apprenticeship with vocational baccalaureate in the sports class from 2016 to 2020.

At the age of 22, I began a Bachelor’s degree in business administration with a specialization in sports management at the University of Applied Sciences Graubünden, which I completed in 2024.

Chase your dreamsand never give up

My professional career

I could not and still cannot let go of my passion; tennis. For this reason, I have been teaching with full passion at TC Herrliberg since 2016 and am also often on the road as a coach at national tournaments with juniors who are at top sport level.
 

While I was doing my commercial apprenticeship with the vocational baccalaureate in the sports class, I was able to complete a one-year internship at Swiss International Air Lines in the HR department. (2018-2019)
 

During my studies, I was already able to look behind the scenes of sports by managing the marketing of various volleyball clubs, including Volero AG and the Volleyball Academy. I was also able to plan the Mobiliar Volleyball Cup Final for Volero AG with an after-party. (2021-2022)
 

After I had an insight into the volleyball scene, I wanted to reorientate myself and move into the field of individual sports. I was able to do this successfully at Athleting GmbH. I was able to work with various top athletes and assist them in the management area. Be it the creation of websites, sponsoring dossiers, newsletters, or other wishes, I tried to support them in all areas in the best possible way. (2022-2023)
 

Since 2023 I am now self-employed and support various athletes in different areas. Where help is needed, I stand by and try to find the best possible solution together with the athlete.

As of April 2024, I have been working as an employee in Relationship Management and Digital Marketing at Global Strategic Capital. In this role, I gain invaluable experience in several key areas that deepen my understanding of both the customer relationship management and marketing landscape. My responsibilities include managing client relationships, developing and implementing digital marketing strategies and utilizing data analytics to improve client engagement. This position also provides me with the opportunity to work closely with cross-functional teams, allowing me to hone my skills in project management, communication and strategic planning.
