Now

Worked myself into a corporate job and didn't enjoy it. Yet, it led me here. I dedicate myself to building something crucial to humanity. Looking into space technology, especially in-orbit service systems.

Currently building Young Founders Conference 2026 with 2000+ guests planned.

If you're building something redefining in space-tech, robotics, consumer-tech, or experiences – I'd love to talk!

Regularly in Berlin, from 8th to the 21st of September in San Francisco.
