Management Consulting

Global Size & Fit Strategy

I advise and support apparel brands in building and implementing a consistent, scalable Size & Fit strategy that reduces return rates, lowers development costs, and streamlines design and creation processes.

 

My work enables brands to deliver reliable, confidence‑building fits that enhance the shopping experience and strengthen long‑term consumer trust.

 

My services include strategic consulting, hands‑on implementation support, active project management, and comprehensive change management to ensure successful adoption across organizations.

Digital Product Development

Digital product development continues to face significant challenges within the apparel industry, even as AI rapidly advances and reshapes the landscape. Despite the growing pressure to innovate, many companies struggle with effective implementation.

 

One of the key reasons lies in a fundamental misunderstanding of the actual value that digital product development can deliver.

Too often, organizations base their strategies on incorrect assumptions, overlooking one of their most valuable assets: the expertise of their own employees.

 

The knowledge and experience of teams are frequently not sufficiently integrated into the planning and execution of digital processes.

 

A critical success factor in digital apparel development is the integration of technical pattern-making expertise into digital workflows. This specialized knowledge is essential to ensure that digital solutions are not only innovative but also practical and aligned with real-world production requirements.

 

As a former Senior Director Advanced Creation - Digital Product Development -  at Adidas, I have built extensive experience in bridging the gap between traditional craftsmanship and digital innovation. I bring a deep understanding of how to successfully combine technical apparel knowledge with modern digital processes, enabling companies to unlock the full potential of digital product development.
