Cosmopolitan<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Born in Bremen (Germany), I was raised in Spain\u2019s Canary Islands, attended a British School then headed to the Caribbean via the UK, but Berlin was where I finally found my perfect, truly international home for thirty years. Since finishing my studies, I\u2019ve found Berlin to be the ideal location for staying connected to the world and for building global networks - from the US to Asia. In my heart I\u2019m still an islander and finally back on my home island Tenerife. I love to be close to the water, while as a passionate paraglider I also love to reach for the skies!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Business expert<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Analytically-minded, I also enjoy shouldering responsibility and taking a risk. Having gained my degree in business informatics and business administration, I worked as a freelance consultant and interim manager. With my experience as an asset manager, fund specialist and commercial relocation expert at Supervisory Board, management and SME levels, today as member of different organisaions, chair of a university council, and the founder and managing director of HvP connect GmbH, I\u2019m convinced three things are essential in business: innovations, sustainability and people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

FairPay<\/h3>\n
\n\t

I have one goal: fair pay for everyone. Equal pay concerns everyone, women as men, politics as economy: it is an economic and political issue. To support companies and organizations by showing them ways of contributing to close the gender pay gap, I recently founded the Fair Pay Innovation Lab<\/a>. With the Universal Fair Pay Check<\/a>, the globally unique warranty mark, I certify companies that pay fairly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Publicist<\/h3>\n
\n\t

As a speaker at conferences and seminars, a guest on radio and TV talk shows, and a commentator on socio-political developments, my preferred topics are gender issues and money. My position is clear and underpinned by many strong arguments \u2013 to attract support in order to get campaigns on the road and to initiate change. I also enjoy debating, particularly on issues such as gender quotas, Equal Pay and Fair Pay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Campaigner<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Why shouldn\u2019t women discuss and demand fair pay? I believe they must. That\u2019s why I was President of Business and Professional Women (BPW) Germany (2010-2016), focused on Equal Pay and worldwide networking. I also founded and ran a women\u2019s investment club (2000-2010). In addition, I\u2019m a member of different organizations. My socio-political commitment is currently targeting one goal: fair pay for all.<\/p>\n

Women and Money must go hand-in-hand. It's so sad that this statement still meets with indifference among many people. While I prefer to leave politics to others, that isn\u2019t the case with the fight for this urgently-needed shift in awareness, so as President of Business and Professional Women Germany I campaigned actively for Equal Pay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
