Originally I wanted to make films that change the world. My first short film is about a skinhead and a foreigner in an assessment center; they both have to work together to get the job. In the end, none of them is being hired, but they become friends. With high hopes I showed his short film in a movie theater full of skinheads and foreigners. It all went horribly wrong. I had failed.

At the same time I worked for a screenwriting school that had a hard time to get through the financial crisis. While helping the business to survive I realized that entrepreneurship is far more effective in making change happen than making films.

That’s why I studied Entrepreneurship at Berlin School of Economics and Law. I use business tools to support the arts, creativity and social change. My main focus is the development and implementation of business concepts in the fields of sustainability and education; education to better prepare people for a rapidly changing world and sustainability to make sure that world still exists when they’re finished.

I like people with opinions who can laugh about themselves.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years back a friend and I drove the whole night and finally arrived at Momument Valley very early in the morning. We watched the sun rise behind the vast sandstones for a little while, but because we were tired and had to wait for the entrance to open we decided to rest in the shade behind a stone wall. After some time a very old indian guy approached us and asked why we're not enjoying the view. We told him that we had already seen it and he answered: "I've seen this view every single day for the past 60 years and it's still beautiful."

Since then I try to never turn my back on something beautiful again.
