MY CAREER PATH IN A NUTSHELL:

Chemist and business economist

  •  

Four years as a new business analyst at Creavis, Evonik’s strategic innovation unit

  •  

Global Business Developer for the rubber additive VESTENAMER® in the High Performance Polymers business line since 2017

 

WHAT I FIND ESPECIALLY INTERESTING ABOUT THE TOPIC OF CIRCULARITY:

The value contribution necessary for a sustainable society.

 

MY TASK IN THE CIRCULAR PLASTICS TEAM AT EVONIK IS:

Industry expert for recycled rubber applications.

 

IF I WERE A PLASTIC PRODUCT, I WOULD PROBABLY BE:

A Tire! Sometimes somewhat unremarkable, but keeping things on track even when things are moving forward quickly, as well as good grip on things and down-to-earth.

 

I’M PUZZLING OVER THE FOLLOWING CHALLENGE AT THE MOMENT:

How can we manufacture high-performance and sensible elastomer products from tire recyclates?

 

MY TIP ON WHERE YOU COULD DO WITHOUT PLASTIC IN YOUR DAY-TO-DAY LIFE:

Use the car less! This reduces microplastic emissions and makes the roads last longer.
