About

Internationally awarded Executive (including a 40 under 40 award at the European Parliament) with over 15 years on all sides of the table — building, advising, investing, and scaling.

From Chief Product Officer roles at wefox (insurance) and Oradian (banking), to advising startups at Indico Capital Partners and co-founding Closers AI, I bring a hands-on, operator-first approach to every engagement.

I've travelled and worked in over 60 countries, spoken at global stages, and served as jury and mentor at accelerators worldwide. I care about execution as much as vision.
