Since 2017 I've been the bridge between people with an idea and people who write the code. I co-founded Registered, a marketplace for the dance world, and was its CTO all the way to the Culttech accelerator in Vienna; then I worked as a consultant and project manager for companies and startups. I like understanding how things work, and in my spare time I build apps with generative AI. I live in Paris and I'm available now.
