Hello everyone, this is Fiona Jasmut, an energetic entrepreneur who was born and raised in Hamburg, Germany.
Always looking for the next challenge! At the beginning of the year she founded KassenKompass GmbH which brings you money back from your public health insurance in Germany like 500€ for your sports membership, clothes, or benefits for pregnant women.
After working in a corporate job at Philips, founding her jewellery brand, and being a financial advisor whilst traveling the world, she focused on German health insurance.
