Enterprise technology advisor, investor, and cultural host
working between Europe and the US.Vienna 🇦🇹 • Miami 🌴 • New York 🗽

Advisory & Investing

My career includes leadership roles at Microsoft, Salesforce and Dow Jones,
where I’ve spent most of my career helping large organizations adopt
new technology and understanding how complex decisions are
made and influenced inside large institutions.Today I work with a small number of
founders, venture partners and
international companies,
particularly those navigating
U.S. market entry
or scaling up.I’m also a Limited Partner and Strategic Advisor at Collinear Capital.

Cultural Projects

Alongside my work in technology, I’m interested in the role
cultural traditions play in shaping communities.Current projects explore immersive opera, salons, and
gatherings inspired by the artistic and salon traditions
of Vienna around 1900.

Quiet Current

I’m also exploring how artificial intelligence can
support human judgment and mental clarity
in an increasingly overstimulated world.This ongoing experiment examines how AI systems might
help high-achieving individuals navigate complexity
with greater clarity, emotional balance, and perspective.
