Bio :

I am a textile engineer with several years of R&D experience. After finishing my study at Reutlingen University, Germany, I have managed an R&D team of a textile medical device company in Switzerland. As project manager within the development projects I have been involved in everything from testing of various materials and technologies to product launch.
Since 2021 I have been part of the team of Forster Rohner Textile Innovations as a Sales Engineer. At Forster Rohner Textile Innovations we develop electronic textiles based on embroidery technology.
