Combining expertise in political and economic theory with a passion for community organizing, I craft narratives that connect technological innovation with broader societal transformation. I thrive on uniting diverse perspectives to elevate discussions beyond technical matters. I am a founder of the Crypto Commons Association and a green-tech startup, and I recently completed my PhD on The Emergence of the Crypto Commons.

Coming from a civil engineering background, I got into IT during the 2017 neural network chess engine revolution. In 2020, I saw Hirschwangerhof’s potential and organized its first event—a 3-week hackathon and retreat—paving the way for the commons hub. I’ve worked in computer vision, started a green tech company, and built validator nodes for the hub. I love starting cool projects and making things happen.
