I take a business priority, ship it, and prove it moved a number.

I’m a digital transformation, product and project lead. Over twenty years of working experience, more than a decade in product and project delivery, much of it building ventures from zero. I use AI as leverage where it helps, and I know where the judgment has to stay human. Start with my skills, and click any one to see where I’ve done it.

How I use AI

AI is a tool I use daily, on the strategy side and in the build itself. Knowing where not to use it matters as much as knowing how.

Ship products. Built Pedal Peak end to end, idea to running product, and automate real workflows with n8n and LLMs.

Test ideas fast. Working prototypes that validate an idea before the big spend.

Know the limit. Stakeholder calls, commercial trade-offs and decisions about people stay with me. AI helps me prepare them, it does not make them.

The CV

Digital transformation, product and project lead in Zurich. Swiss citizen, available with notice. I turn ambiguous business priorities into scoped projects, governed delivery and measured results, equally at home with engineers on the build and with leadership on the trade-offs.
