About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Consumer protection for finance products in Germany

ABOUT ME

We were traveling for almost a year. Now that we're back, I have found a job in Germany, related to environmental and financial issues. I want to make this world a better place for humans and for our lovely nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you think is right in order to stay trustworthy. Tell others about it in order to have an impact.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies, yet I prefer alternatives to the Hollywood mainstream. There are a lot of good German movies out there.
Music: It's indie rock, definitely.
Books: Currently reading '2nd person singular' by Sayed Kashua. Great stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my nicest memories: The 'Red Rock' in the Rocky Mountains, close to Boulder, Colorado. I was 4 when I climbed it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am able to teach you how to invest socially responsibly, and about what the bank really does with your money.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, South Africa, Turkey

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Germany, Tanzania, United States
