Friederike Keitlinghaus
AssociateI grew up in Germany, but in recent years, I have also lived in the Netherlands, the US, and the UK.
Before joining White Star, I worked as a consultant for McKinsey & Company in their Berlin office. While supporting clients across various industries, I focused on sustainability, tech-related projects, and private equity clients.
I hold a master’s degree in Finance & Accounting from the London School of Economics and a BSc in Business Administration along with a BA in Philosophy from the Erasmus University in Rotterdam.
I’m particularly excited about the opportunity to support innovative entrepreneurs in Germany and across Europe, helping to drive advancements that will make our society better.
In my free time, I enjoy sports, reading, and engaging with art. Running is my consistent sport, and I recently completed the half marathon in Berlin. I am an avid reader of fantasy and sci-fi books, with favourites including Dune, Lord of the Rings, and Harry Potter. Art is one of my greatest passions; I am fascinated by the old masters and have been painting since a young age myself, primarily in a naturalistic style using acrylics and watercolours.
