From building illusions to seeing through them.
For thirty years, I built companies across global markets. US, Asia, Europe. I learned how to present, package, perform. How to create the appearance of progress while managing chaos. Then I learned how to see through it.
What changed.
The shift came from watching strategies fail despite perfect execution. From sitting in rooms where power dynamics decided everything but no one said it out loud. From seeing leaders drown in data while missing what mattered.
Most decision-makers don't lack intelligence. They lack the discipline to remove what blocks their view.
That's when I stopped building and started dismantling. From entrepreneur to advisor.
What I bring.
Entrepreneurial Experience
Thirty years building businesses across markets. I learned how they work and why they don't. That's what qualifies me to dismantle them.
Technological Infrastructure
I wrote a book on AI in mid-market strategy. My work runs on AI infrastructure. I use technology to spot patterns, test scenarios, identify trends, try to understand what's coming.
Human Intuition
But I also read what technology can't measure: the unspoken dynamics in leadership teams. The avoided truths. The structural realities no one names. I spent decades writing between the lines. Now I read them.
How I got here.
I didn't plan to advise. I planned to keep building. But I kept seeing the same thing: leaders carrying too much. Too many layers. Too many interests. Too much noise. Too much performance obscures what matters.
When the pandemic hit in 2020, I started to build something different. Not adding analysis. But removing distortion. Naming what's avoided. Finally.
Who this is for.
Founders, owners, executives who know clarity is a competitive advantage. Leaders willing to face reality before it forces their hand. Decision-makers who need to act, not debate.
If you want validation, I'm not your person. If you want to see clearly, let's talk.
Beyond the work.
I live in Germany. I write to stay sharp. I photograph to learn how to see. Both teach attention. Clarity starts there.
"The best decisions don't come from gathering more. They come from removing what blocks your view."
