Mensch
I was born in 1985, happily married and have 2 wonderful children. As a family who loves to travel, we spend our free time in beautiful places around the world. As a sports enthusiast, I am always looking for new sporting challenges and love speed.
Als jemand, der das Leben mit offenen Armen empfängt, bin ich weniger darum besorgt, was andere über mich denken, und fokussiere mich vielmehr darauf, das Beste aus jedem Moment zu machen. Kritik betrachte ich stets als hilfreiches Feedback.
Meine Energie und mein Unternehmungsgeist bringen mich sowohl in Gesellschaft als auch in Diskussionen voran, wobei ich andere mit meiner Begeisterung für Neues und Visionäres anstecke. Ich habe oft ein gutes Gespür für neue Entwicklungen und Trends und die seltene Gabe, mehrere Dinge gleichzeitig zu jonglieren – ein Blick in meinen Kindle voller Bücher zu unterschiedlichsten Themen und dem „Urwald“ von Notizen in meinem Handy genügt als Beweis.
Mit einer entschlossenen Natur und einer klaren Zielsetzung im Blick lasse ich mich nicht leicht von meinem Weg abbringen. Obwohl ich bereits viel Erfolg verzeichnen konnte und dadurch finanziell solide aufgestellt bin, mache ich weiter. Auf die Frage, warum ich dann nicht aufhöre, lautet meine Antwort immer: Weil ich noch nicht fertig bin!
Meine Visionen verfolge ich mit fokussierter Energie, immer offen für den nächsten Schritt in Richtung der Ziele, die ich mir in meinem persönlichen 12-Jahresplan gesetzt habe.

Direct Co-Investor
As a direct co-investor, I support family offices and private equity companies. My involvement begins with deal sourcing, benefits from my extensive network and extends throughout the entire deal phase. I not only select potential investments, but also participate directly in due diligence and make independent decisions on active direct co-investments in selected deals.
My role is characterized by professionalism, agility, and a high level of commitment. In particular, my strengths lie in supporting due diligence processes and providing industry-specific expertise.
As a continuous point of contact, I accompany selected transactions from the evaluation phase in the Investment Committee through negotiations to closing and beyond. Through active monitoring and support in the exit strategy to my network, I ensure that I am perceived as a reliable and effective partner who significantly contributes to the success of each deal
View
The notion that success is easily attainable persists. As an entrepreneur, however, you know that this is far from the truth. Hard work and team spirit are the driving forces behind every successful business. Entrepreneurship is a challenge with its own costs, but also its rewards. The trick is to view each challenge as a common source of motivation. After all, problems are basically just opportunities to change direction, or are they?
Erfolg selbst hängt vielmehr von der gemeinsamen Anstrengung aller Beteiligten ab, um ein gemeinsames Ziel zu erreichen. Doch manchmal stellen Gier und die Egos einzelner Personen unerwartete Hindernisse dar. Es ist ein Trugschluss zu glauben, dass das Anhäufen von Besitz zu Glück führt. Tatsächlich sind es der Weg zum Erfolg und gemeinsame Erlebnisse, die wahres Glück hervorbringen. Und wenn wir das tun, was wir lieben, scheint das Glück uns fast magisch anzuziehen.
Doch wir dürfen nicht vergessen, dass Scheitern ein unvermeidlicher Teil des Prozesses ist. Meine persönlichen Misserfolge haben mir im Laufe der Jahre unbezahlbare Lektionen vermittelt. Die Weisheit, dass man sieben Mal hinfallen und acht Mal wieder aufstehen kann, verdeutlicht die Bedeutung von Widerstandsfähigkeit und Siegeswillen. Diese Botschaft versuche ich stets zu vermitteln, wenn ich mich mit anderen Unternehmern austausche.
What you do with this information is entirely up to you, but remember: the only thing the world owes you is opportunity.
To your success,

Strategic investment partner
A key aspect of my role as a strategic investment partner involves close collaboration with Managing Directors of PE funds and Family Offices. Through regular communication, I ensure that all parties are continuously informed about current market developments and potential investment opportunities.
In addition to analytical and advisory activities, I am actively involved in the design and implementation of investment projects. This includes negotiating and structuring deals, overseeing portfolio companies, and initiating strategic measures to enhance value.
In the constantly evolving global economy, I strive to proactively identify new opportunities and develop innovative solutions. The goal is to adapt the portfolios of funds and family offices to changing market conditions and effectively protect and grow their assets.
Therefore, my role requires not only a deep understanding of financial instruments and markets but also a forward-thinking mindset and the ability to maintain and expand long-term relationships. Geographically, my focus is on the DACH region and the MENA region.
