Get to know us

Thomas Narowetz

Head of Department & Fan of Digital Tools

Our passionate expert for digital applications and innovations. In his analogue life, he convinces with charm, heart and agile team leadership. His secret superpower is generating project names.

Jasmina Salkic

Project Manager & Marketing

With one foot in a yoga pose and the other in the joy of travelling, Jasmina skillfully juggles between yoga flow and different languages. With a bachelor’s degree in sociology and a master’s degree in global studies, she not only brings know-how to the table, but also valuable experience in national project management. Thanks to her creativity and green thumb, she not only sprouts different ideas, but also plants of all kinds. When she is not creating a pun or sorting books and folders by color, she is possibly thinking of a sustainable idea or enjoying time in nature.

Verena Maier

Project Manager & Logo Produce

With a curious mind and a creative spirit, Verena is always on the lookout for new trends, fresh ideas and inspiring stories. After studying Media and Communication Science, she spent time in the UK gaining international work experience and developed a lasting appreciation for London, British humour, and its pub culture. Passionate about connecting generations, she enjoys creating projects that make learning more interactive, engaging, and fun. When she is not brainstorming new ideas, she values meaningful conversations and the inspiration they bring.

Birgit Ungerböck

Project Manager

Birgit is our science expert, who brings her knowledge of chemistry, her commitment to sustainability, and her talent for networking to the GreenChem project. As an enthusiastic  gardener with a sense for community, she focuses not only on the growth of plants but especially on the growth of people – with education being the fertiliser. In her free time, you’ll find Birgit either out in nature (preferably swimming in the water) or out on her bike.

Patrick Flach

Project Manager & Finances


Patrick is our expert for green projects, but his openness to new ideas also makes him versatile. We are confident that he will contribute significantly to the implementation of an efficient coffee billing system.

Julia Corra

Project Manager

Julia, the passionate globetrotter, has already visited 24 out of 195 countries and is on a clear mission: to travel to them all! She is especially fascinated by the natural world, the wildlife, and the diverse ecosystems she encounters on her journeys. Her studies in Environmental Systems Sciences with a touch of economics continually inspire her to question sustainable solutions and develop new perspectives.

In her free time, she’s a true documentary enthusiast, happily diving into a wide range of topics. When it comes to puzzles, she loves challenging her mind—Sudoku and crosswords aren’t solved for her until every detail fits perfectly!

Mirella Fiammengo

Project Manager & Marketing

Mirella, the youngest member of our team, is a true gourmet and passionate foodie. With a background in sociology and social engagement, she brings a strong interest in understanding people and societal dynamics into her work.

Having originally trained in tourism and marketing, she combines creativity with an analytical mindset and contributes to the team through insightful evaluations and data analysis. Passionate about sociology, philosophy, and biology, Mirella enjoys connecting different perspectives to develop fresh ideas and innovative approaches.

Ioana David

Project Manager

With a Bachelor’s degree in Romance Studies (French), an interdisciplinary Master’s in Global Studies, and a passion for travel, she loves discovering new perspectives—whether in society and culture or while wondering why weekends always seem to fly by faster than expected. Before becoming part of the team, she successfully balanced intercultural teamwork and organizational tasks as a project coordinator for a non-profit organization supporting migrant women in Graz. In her free time, you’ll either find her somewhere in the world with a psychological thriller in hand or on a determined quest to find a hobby that doesn’t feel like exercise—so far, with limited success.
