About me

University Instructor and Swiss Army Knife. Loves especially extreme phenomena and their epistemic issues. In addition to teaching duties (see below in this page), I progress my thesis. Please contact me, if you like to talk about my interests. I'm eager to meet new people, having insightful conversations, and start new (research) projects.

As a side hustle, I am one of many "Gyro Gearlooses" of Mission Grey. I facilitate, productize, innovate, and demonstrate our External Intelligence Platform. Moreover, I let my network know about our capabilities in the context of combining risk management and geopolitics in unforeseen manner.

Why was I requested to join? My interests, expertise and passion match "rather" well with Mission Grey's needs. I can talk risk management and geopolitics. Furthermore, I'm at my best when I’m involved in creating something completely new.
