I bring founder-grade leadership where regulation meets innovation. From Swiss foundations to tokenomics and MiCAR readiness, I deliver sharp cross-functional execution to build what early-stage teams need most.
I have hands-on experience establishing and running an internationally focused Swiss foundation, ensuring governance and compliance in one of the world’s most rigorous regulatory environments.
