I am co-founder of 20squares and the Institute for Categorical Cybernetics. I am currently CEO of both organizations. I am also strategic advisor to sparkOnyx, a startup focused on procurement automation which I co-founded.

Before, I was an assistant professor at the University of St. Gallen and a post-doc at the University of Mannheim. I also worked as an economic advisor for several startups and companies.

I have obtained my PhD (2013) in economics from the University of Mannheim. During my PhD I was a visitor at the Toulouse School of Economics and a Chazen Visitor at Columbia Business School New York.
