About Me

I am fundamentally curious. And I like people.

And I love to start with why, but obsess about the how.

I have been working in the chemical and life science industries most of my career and?I have been lucky enough to develop technical and commercial experiences.

For many years now I have been thinking about what is a good Product and how to make a business out of it. And I have no intention to stop.

By the way, I am an amateur photographer as well, visit my Flickr profile if you like street and travel photography.
