Engineer. Coach.
I empower people who want to make the best out of their life and the lives of those around them.
As an engineer at Airbnb, I build the platform for a world where anyone can belong anywhere. As a coach, I focus on supporting computer scientists, educators and green engineers.
The teams I work with consist of ambitious, candid individuals who want to maximize their positive impact while living fulfilled and true to themselves.



Open Source. Pro Bono.

The German Youth Press helped me converting writing skills into journalistic powers. I'm giving back – jpbw.de represents the subsidiary in Baden-Wuerttemberg.
