About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Saving humanity from itself.

ABOUT ME

A suit-wearing academic and manager during the day and a hippie rebel at night.
After deciding to change pretty much everything in my life, I came to Berlin to study social science in the Humboldt uni in Berlin and now I got as far as studying sociology in the Freie uni in Berlin as well.
In the current episode, I work at trying to make urban mobility in Central Asia more sustainable ^^.

PHILOSOPHY

Atheist, Environmentalist, Resource-based-economy, whatever works.
