Hands-on when the work needs it. Strategic when the decision needs it. Clear recommendations, prioritization, and execution support on the Microsoft stack and related infrastructure. Incident process design, major-event response, technical debt retirement, and the documentation and ownership models that keep systems from sliding back into chaos.
Contact MeIntune frameworks, Autopilot, Entra ID, compliance policies, Defender for Endpoint, and the identity and device standards around them.
Merging companies? Technical integration of acquired companies into existing platforms: identity, endpoints, collaboration, and the operational handoff, so the new environment doesn't become the next source of debt.
Contact MeFor you: your home network, remote work or gaming setup, internet-connected devices, and securing your identity. Home automation, media integration, solar and EV charging, and “on-the-go” tech: two years, 16k miles, and over 70 days of Class-C RV camping taught me what works, so you don’t have to experiment.
For your business or non-profit: I manage your vendors and partners and coordinate their work toward the result you need, so you can focus on your mission.

My drive comes from an unyielding curiosity for technology and to never stop learning, experimenting and keeping an open mind.
My true passion is enabling You, Your Business, or Your Enterprise! How? I look for nuance and have a desire to "leave no one" behind. Technology should aid Your Outcomes, not the other way around. I build end-to-end processes that scale across technology disciplines, shaped to fit your business, not the other way around.
Be NotAfraid with me!
Born, raised, and educated in Germany, I came up through the German dual vocational system: working in industry while completing formal technical education.
That foundation carried me into plant IT, including helping build a new manufacturing plant in Mexico from the ground up, then managed services and leadership roles in Fortune 50 and growing cloud-services organizations: 20+ years of turning complexity into reliable outcomes.
A lot of the work is strategy and leadership: clarifying direction, owning outcomes, and making sure technical decisions actually land. Endpoints and Microsoft 365 are frequent vehicles for that, but the through-line is decisions and follow-through that hold. NotAfraid Consulting is the vehicle for organizations that need strategy and hands-on execution together.
