Head of Marketing

Hey! 👋 I'm a serial entrepreneur based in Berlin and obsessed with digital marketing and growth hacking.

Proven track record of growing and scaling companies in:

- FinTech 
- E-Commerce
- Real Estate
- Travel & Tourism 
- Fitness
- Education
- Health

My (unconventional) journey as an entrepreneur/marketer:

2008-2012: 14 years old, started affiliate marketing to afford video games and ended up generating and monetizing hundreds of thousands of clicks in the US and DACH region (gaming and music niches) without spending a dime on marketing.

2017: While in college, I searched for the best students who had graduated in the shortest amount of time, interviewed them, and created a how-to guide that I then sold online. All while taking a long time to finish my own degree. 🤫

2018: Co-founded Colourful Moments, an AI-based e-commerce platform to upload black and white images and buy a colorized version of them. Also ran marketing for a real estate investment company during this time.

2019: Co-founded Smilebold, a direct-to-consumer teeth-straightening startup that delivered custom-made, invisible aligners to your doorstep.

2020-2023: Co-founded Coinpanion, to enable ETF-like crypto investments, grew to 40 employees within 3 years and raised €5.8M from founders and executives of Scalable Capital, Bitpanda, Clark, Finanzcheck.de, Runtastic, 468 Capital and many more.

Currently building something new and investing in interesting startups.
