Passion for Research, Technology & Innovation
This is about Michelle
Currently, I’m immersed in research at the Neuro and Digital Marketing Lab at IQS in Barcelona, where I’m pursuing my PhD with a focus on Neuromarketing and Sustainability. Beforehand, I gained experience in project management and online marketing, especially search engine optimization and social media management. Having lived and worked in Australia and Spain for multiple years, I further gained experience abroad, leading diverse international teams. Personally, I am a combination of curiosity and dedication, driving my enthusiasm for emerging technologies like AI, but also AR, and VR. I love to share insights and speak about topics is am passionate about, inspiring those around me.
If you asked me to describe myself, I would say I’m a mix of a workaholic who loves to work and an undercover nerd who secretly enjoys diving into nerdy stuff.
WORKAHOLIC SIDE
I have built up a lot of experience in online marketing and project management, getting really good at it. My journey has taken me to various places – I even lived and worked in Australia for a whole year. And all the while, I’ve managed to keep up with work while pursuing my studies.
NERDY SIDE
My academic journey started with a Bachelor’s degree in Frankfurt, during which I spent a year studying in Valencia. After that, I went on to do a Masters in Barcelona. And now, I’m getting ready for a PhD.
My foundation lies in international business, while my heart beats for online marketing and technology. A strong passion for sustainability fuels my interests.
I’m always wanting to learn more and keep exploring.
I’m excited about new challenges and making a difference in my studies and work.

Digital Marketing
Search Engine Optimization
Digitalization
Corporate Social Responsibility
