Digital Architect & Transformation Consultant

Your tools don't talk to each other.
I change that.

15 years of experience with e-commerce platforms, CRM systems, and data architecture—from 60,000-product catalogs to startup infrastructure. I bring structure to fragmented tool landscapes.

Experience with

Marc Schraepler von Gerlach

The success of digital projects doesn't depend on the technology—it depends on clean data structures and clear processes.

My roots lie in high-volume e-commerce: platforms with tens of thousands of products, complex data flows, and many stakeholders. That's where I learned what really makes projects successful.

Today, I apply this experience across different contexts—from retail marketplaces to B2B portals to CRM systems with specific requirements. My role: reduce complexity, align stakeholders, get projects delivered.

Focus Areas

I bridge the gap between strategy and go-live. Focus: risk mitigation in complex rollouts.

CRM & Data Ecosystems

Architecture, not just administration. I build tool stacks that cleanly separate data and make it actionable.

Process Optimization & Automation

From bottleneck to scale. Systematic efficiency gains through targeted automation.
