ABOUT ME

I’m an independent consultant specializing in venture clienting, corporate venturing, and open innovation. Working with the pioneers at 27pilots, I helped global corporations design and implement effective venture client models to drive strategic startup collaboration. I hold an MBA in Innovation and Business Creation from TU Munich, and bring a truly international perspective, with professional experience across Germany, Mexico, and Silicon Valley. I support organizations in identifying, engaging, and extracting measurable value from startups—accelerating innovation while reducing risk.
