I'm a product leader based in Berlin, building software that helps Germany transition to clean energy.

I've spent my career at the intersection of technology and real-world problems. Not the kind where you optimize a click-through rate by 0.3% — the kind where software has to work because people's homes, money, and energy supply depend on it.

At thermondo, I'm leading a platform transformation that touches everything from how a customer gets a quote to how an installer shows up at their door. It's complex, messy, high-stakes work — replacing a legacy system that 120 people use every day, while the business keeps running. I think about data models, payment architectures, and rollout strategies a lot.

Before that, I worked at Enpal on solar energy products and at Friendsurance, where I built a product discovery process from scratch — securing research budget, validating ideas systematically, and filling the roadmap with things that actually moved the needle.

What ties all of this together: I'm drawn to hard problems where technology can make things meaningfully better. Not incrementally better — structurally better. The energy transition is the clearest example of that I've found.

I'm also increasingly fascinated by AI — not as hype, but as a genuine shift in how we build and think about products. I use AI tools daily in my own work. I think a lot about what responsible, thoughtful AI adoption looks like inside product organizations.

I've visited 45 countries and counting. I play piano most days — it's the best way I know to think without thinking. I paint when I have time, and I taught myself 3D modeling and creative coding over a summer just to see if I could.

In winter, you'll find me kitesurfing in South Africa. The rest of the year, I'm in Berlin — probably at a coffee shop, probably with a screen open.
