Background & Journey

From Basel to the San Francisco Bay Area

From Basel to the City by the bay

  I grew up in Basel, Switzerland, where my early career in banking established a foundation in financial discipline, governance, and execution rigor. This was complemented by leadership, accountability, and trust developed through service as a Swiss military officer.


A personal decision later brought me to San Francisco, where I became part of the early evolution of digital commerce and go-to-market technologies during Silicon Valley’s formative growth years. Since then, I have led global operating and technology transformations across enterprise and high-growth environments, helping organizations modernize how they build, sell, and scale.
Working across regions and cultures has shaped a pragmatic, globally informed approach to leadership and execution in complex, fast-moving markets.

Bridging What Matters: Strategy, People & Technology

 Across my career, spanning startups to Fortune 500 enterprises, I have partnered with executive teams to align strategy with execution through disciplined operating models. My focus has consistently been connecting people, process, and technology to deliver predictable outcomes at scale.


Today, this work increasingly involves embedding AI into execution - not as experimentation, but as a practical lever to improve decision quality, adoption, and performance. I believe durable transformation comes from strong governance, clear operating cadence, and teams equipped to execute effectively in an AI-augmented environment.

BEYOND WORK

    Outside of work, I enjoy staying active outdoors and spending time at home with my wife, including the ongoing negotiation of peaceful coexistence between our German Shepherd and Maine Coon cat. I remain actively engaged in community leadership and value continuous learning around how technology shapes organizations, society, and the future of work.


I’m naturally hands-on with technology, exploring AI, automation, and digital tools and using what I learn in everyday life and community leadership, especially where time and resources are limited.
