Biology gives you a brain. Life turns it into a mind. I got a brain prone to innovation and pattern recognition and a life which allowed me to use these capabilities with great success.

Life gave me a path in IT and allowed me to become an expert in IT governance, product development and private markets allocations. In parallel, I used that brain to envision, innovate and create new products and therefore changing life.

qashqade

I am co-founder and creator of the qashqade product. qashqade is the embodyment of my brains wish to find patterns nobody else saw with that clarity and innovate products based on these patterns. The resulting application is unique in the market and successfully implemented with several large fund administrators, fund managers and pension funds.

The journey with qashqade since 2018 made me the foremost expert on proceed allocation calculations (waterfalls) in the private market industry.

qashqade forced me to strengthen my leadership skills, risk management capabilities and IT management abilities.

ZKB

I am a board member of ZKB which is the second largest universal bank in Switzerland. Within ZKB I chair the IT committee of the board.

I bring expertise to the board to cover topics like Cyber Security, Operational Risk and Resilience which are a high priority for any company worldwide. My views are sharpened with the pressure of being responsible for security at my own company (with much more limited financial possibilities) and the experience of being deep into it and therefore able to talk shop with the professionals.

Due to the position at ZKB, governance and in particular IT governance became a very important field of expertise in my personal development.
