MSSM, 2025

This is how to say my name:

   

About

I am passionate about Motorsport, Technology, Manufacturing, 3D Printing, Cars, Helicopters, AI, Crypto, Finance, Skiing and pretty much anything else related to Tech. During my Go-Kart career I learned to work well under pressure, keep my head down, and focus on what's essential. This helped me during my time in University as well as during the Startups I helped found. I'm also fascinated by engineering and modern manufacuring techniques and have some experience with programming CNC machines and using 3D printers. 

Why MSSM?

I worked with a brilliant TPM at Google who made me want to follow his footsteps. I was always eager to study in the US and experiencing the valley has been a long standing dream of mine. I love a good international setting and team and the MSSM program offered a clear path to all of these goals. This coupled with the CMU's reputation made it my top choice!

Education

Bachelor of Business Administration at IE University

Experience

Project Engineer at Magna & Google

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?

I'm aiming for a position as a Technical Program Manager, but am similarly excited about returning to work as a Software Engineer. As long as I am able to work with computers and a good team I will be happy.
