I was born in Munich in 2005 and spent part of my childhood abroad in Beijing, Zurich, and Singapore. I later returned to Germany and completed my Abitur in Erding.

After graduating, I spent two weeks with my family at Plage de Pampelonne on the Côte d'Azur. Motivated by spontaneity and freedom, I decided to seek work at one of the beachside restaurants. I landed a position at the Mediterranean restaurant Le 1051, where I discovered my passion for cooking. Despite my limited school-level French, I managed to perform well and embrace the challenge.

Back in Germany, I began studying business administration in 2023 at LMU Munich while continuing to pursue my love for cooking. In my first semester, I joined the Italian restaurant GIGI TRATTORIA, where I was once again the only German on the team. Using Duolingo and online resources, I learned the basics of the beautiful language and immersed myself in Italian cuisine. Later, I worked at Zeitlang at Bergson Kunstkraftwerk, a regional fine dining restaurant, where I gained valuable insights from Christopher Engel, the kitchen director, who taught me the importance of mentorship and leadership.

Eventually, my focus shifted to finance, and I began exploring different career opportunities. This journey led me to the dynamic field of alternative investments. Passionate about the sector, I co-founded a student club dedicated to the topic and am now building a startup in this exciting sector.
