I have extensive publication experience in top journals such as Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, International Journal of Research in Marketing, Journal of Operations Management, Journal of International Marketing, etc. As a former Associate Editor of International Marketing Review and reviewer of hundreds of papers I can provide behind-the-scenes insights into the review process.

My podcast is the no.1 podcast on Academic Writing in the German speaking community! I combine my academic knowledge with creative writing techniques to help researchers improving their writing output.

What others say about the workshop:

Overall, I think that for PhD students this is a must-do workshop! And for the rest of us, I think it is really helpful in establishing a writing habit, which is probably the most difficult task, with teaching, exams, paperwork, faculty meetings.

You did a fabulous job with leading this workshop and achieving, in my opinion, a good balance of lecture and practice with a fun and pleasant vibe.

It was great, especially your attitude how to empower us as excellent writers.

Really loved it and truly appreciate the work that you put into this.
