Advising companies and public-sector teams, backing founders, and still building things of my own.

Profile
I’ve spent more than two decades building, scaling, advising, investing in, and sometimes restructuring companies across technology, regulated betting, digital media, restaurants, and frontier tech.
I’m a builder at heart: I like getting close to the problem, working with good people, and turning complicated ideas into practical businesses and products. The work has taken me across Europe, the US, LatAm, and Australia—and occasionally into the public sector, advising government teams on strategy and technology.

People following my work and writing on LinkedIn.
Published photojournalist. Field work has appeared internationally, including Kumbh Mela coverage for Anadolu Agency.
Creative footnotes. A Top 5 Apple App Store product and three bronze creative awards—work I’m proud of, but not the whole story.
Open source
I still like building things myself. This is a small selection of the projects I’ve made public so far, for other people to use, adapt, or improve. There’s plenty more to come.
ClamAV GUI for macOS
I think powerful open-source tools shouldn’t require living in Terminal. I wanted ClamAV to feel approachable, so this gives it a straightforward native Mac interface for scans, updates, quarantine, and scheduling.

Family Message Box
I built this for my family: a physical box that turns voice messages into lights and buttons, so staying in touch feels less like using another screen. The repo includes everything needed to build your own.

Open door
I’m an angel investor and mentor, and I love working with the best and brightest—people with the nerve and patience to build something difficult. If that sounds like you, I’d genuinely like to hear what you’re working on.
