About Me

Engineer turned product leader

I'm Brian. Based in Berlin. I spent years as a developer and data scientist before moving into product leadership. Now I run product and tech for companies in HealthTech, FinTech, Crypto, and Mobility. I read and learn every single day to stay sharp across product, tech, and AI. Building things that actually work matters more to me than anything else.

Beyond Work

Flying

Aviation has been a lifelong fascination. I'm an active paraglider, hold a Cessna simulator flying certificate, and am a certified drone pilot. Whether it's thermals, cockpits, or quadcopters, getting airborne is where I feel most free.

Climbing

I've summited Mount Damavand, Iran's highest peak at 5,671 m, three times. Standing above the clouds on a volcanic summit never gets old.
