I work with CEOs, boards, investors and leadership teams when product, transformation or operating model execution needs to be clarified, accelerated or reset across markets.
Strategy and delivery are combined to shape decision, operating and business models that hold at scale.
20+ years of experience, including 15 in senior and advisory executive roles. 30+ strategic programmes in contexts ranging from EUR 15M to EUR 500M+, across Opella, Kantar XTEL, Stellantis, EY and regulated financial services.
My role is to map the system, clarify priorities and trade offs, align business, product and technology, then lead execution across countries.
Alongside Oksydian, I co-founded Architekt, an advisory and venture platform. The current portfolio spans ambulatory healthcare, agritech intelligence, due diligence automation and deterministic graph analysis. My scope covers product conception, decision and business architecture, research architecture, roadmaps, operating model and delivery.
Constraints are the material, not the obstacle. I shape complexity into structure.

About AI
AI is treated as an operating architecture, not a feature layer or productivity tool. I structure the research corpus, data and knowledge models, decision logic, agentic workflows, validation gates, traceability and human control required for systems to remain reliable under regulatory, domain and scale constraints. The objective is governed augmentation of judgement, not automated output.
