I hold a master's degree in Computer Science from ETH Zurich and a master's degree in Economics from University of Zurich. I have previously founded a cloud storage startup, and have invested in a few select Swiss startups. I am board member of Bitcoin Suisse, quitt.ch, AlgoTrader, Meisser Economics, Swiss Crypto Tokens AG, and Bitcoin Association Switzerland. Furthermore, I am a PhD student at the Institute for Banking and Finance, University of Zurich. My latest venture is Aktionariat, a technical services company that helps in setting up markets for tokenized equity.

Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy inspired me with the vision of building large scale economic simulations early on in my life. This long-term project aims at pursuing this vision. I strongly believe that coming from computer science, there are many low-hanging fruits to be picked in economics -- similar to the progress that has been made by mathematicians and physicists entering the field earlier. In particular, methods and tools from modern software engineering are well-suited to manage the organizational and technical complexity of building large-scale models.
