My life has been shaped by building companies.
Each venture has taught me the value of collaboration, the importance of agility, and the power of a strong network. My entrepreneurial journey has been defined by a relentless pursuit of growth and a passion for creating impact.
Entrepreneurial life is hard and unpredictable.
In my observation only the most resilient, creative, smart, and hardest working talents finish their entrepreneurial rollercoaster ride with a big smile. Entrepreneurs are mostly recognised once they shine bright like a diamond, but we tend to forget that all diamonds are born under extrem pressure, and never overnight. I personally started from zero. I experienced years of painful pressure. It was never an option to give up. I understood, failure teaches the hardest lessons, but success unlocks freedom. Today I enjoy to lead, build, teach, support and work alongside innovators and brillant talents. Experience is not a guarantee to win, but it can have a drastic impact on our odds.

Over the years I have grown a diverse portfolio of companies. Additionally, I serve on the board of directors/trustees of several companies and act as a support, mentor and innovator.
