leadership vision

Don't get a job, create a job and help others to become the best possible self by empowering them. 

my story

I am passionately driven by curiosity and constantly challenging the status quo.

Why gets me further than because. I have organized the first Sciana Hackathon in Zurich 2019 and engaged in a couple of projects together with Sciana Fellows. Glad to be with the programme.
