I have two passions in life: diplomacy and tech startups. Volunteering with Holocaust survivors in Jerusalem right after high school taught me that even in the darkest of times, there is always a reason never to give up and to make the most of every moment. This experience also sparked my deep curiosity to learn and understand the implications of history today.
During my undergraduate studies in Business Administration and Management, I co-founded a startup and built Germany's largest student-run startup conference, Q-Summit, with a team of 80 people and 1,000 attendees.
Then as an avid self-learner, I switched from my startup & business experience to a completely different field: international politics. Working in policy consulting with NATO and defense ministries across Europe taught me to deal with the big issues of our time at a high level. It led me to pursue a Master's in Diplomacy in Tel Aviv, undoubtedly the best region to combine my passions for diplomacy and tech startups.
I then started early-stage investing at iAngels, a Tel Aviv-based fund in Israel, before joining 10x Founders, where I continue to build synergies between the European, US, and Israeli tech ecosystems.
Outside of work, you'll find me playing whatever sports includes a ball, or learning about history, preferably on one of my annual backpacking trips to remote locations.
