What I offer
Mentor to founders and entrepreneurs
I mentor founders and entrepreneurs around different topics especially within Future of Work and HR Tech.
I support founders with early-stage (first check-seed) fundraising (e.g. creating their pitch presentations, preparing their data rooms, and building their investor outreach strategy).
I am currently a Principal at Future Wrk Ventures, an early-stage VC and venture studio with a focus on the Future of Work. I have ~5 years of experience investing (from deal sourcing to closing) in pre-seed and seed-stage startups in Europe, working with 13 portfolio companies during this time.
I support organizations like Seedstars, the Westerwelle Foundation and the Impact WorkTech Accelerator with their incubation and acceleration programs as a startup mentor. My focus areas are fundraising, pitch decks and the Future of Work.
I worked closely with the founders of different venture-backed startups (FinTech, InsurTech, Hospitality Tech). My responsibilities included developing MVPs and new features, setting up operations in new markets, designing & implementing new processes as well as business development activities.
I have worked with and led several organizations and initiatives fostering entrepreneurial education in Europe and Africa. I organized hackathons, pitch competitions, conferences and matchmaking events, mostly with a focus on university and high-school students.
