Here, in short, is who I am.
I think deeply about what it means to live a good life. I enjoy making things that people love. I have built two successful companies from the ground up. I can code, I can sell and I have never stopped learning.
Currently, I'm applying to OpenAI. So, if you are from OpenAI... hello 👋 I'm glad you made it here! This is my CV and these are 15 reasons you should hire me
Experience
Founder @ DieForschungszulage
Jan 2023 - Present · 2 yrs 4 mos
DieForschungszulage is a service that helps startups get government funding. I closed €400k of deal volume in the first year and built the entire customer base from scratch.
Co-Founder @ MeetAnyway
Jan 2018 - Dec 2024 · 7 yrs
MeetAnyway helps researchers to organize online conferences. We made over €1M in revenue and had over 30k users in the first two years. I brought on board over 100 of the world's most renowned research institutes.
Founder @ Academy Ventures
2016 - 2018 · 2 yrs
Studipost was a free messenger for teachers and parents. It reached 4,000 weekly active users. In the end I couldn't get the business model to work - the sales cycles were too long and not profitable enough.
Venture Architect @ Deloitte Digital
2014 - 2016 · 2 yrs
Deloitte Digital helps German DAX companies build new businesses. I joined as employee #3; by my departure, the team had grown to 40 and secured five major deals. While not the primary closer, I gained valuable insights observing skilled professionals execute these deals.
