About Me
I’m a final-year medical student and LBF Fellow from Vienna, Austria. My real obsession isn’t just understanding how the body works — it’s figuring out how to make it work longer and better.
I sit at the crossroads of medicine, synthetic biology, and artificial intelligence. On the side, I’m studying Mathematics and Chemical Engineering at TU Vienna — purely out of curiosity, because I believe the deepest breakthroughs happen when disciplines collide.
I believe the biggest bottleneck in science isn’t ideas — it’s execution. We have more hypotheses than hands to test them, more data than minds to analyze it, and more potential cures than pipettes to develop them. That’s why I’m building toward a future where AI accelerates science itself.
Beyond the lab and the lecture hall, I’m deeply invested in building communities that amplify human potential:
🌐 Telos Circle — A non-profit I founded to accelerate humanity’s progress by bringing exceptional talent together in one space. We connect thinkers, builders, and doers across disciplines to tackle the problems that matter most.
🏠 The Residency — Hacker House Communities — I build hacker house communities where builders have a space to build, a community to share their learning, and a culture of co-learning and peer-learning at speed. Think of it as a living room for people who want to ship things that matter.
What Drives Me
🧬 End Aging
Aging is the root cause behind almost every disease. I want to help end it — not just treat the symptoms, but reprogram the biology of aging itself using synthetic biology, AI, and every tool we can build.
🔭 Understand the Universe
Lifelong learning isn't a hobby, it's a mission. I'm trying to asymptotically understand the whole universe — from quantum mechanics to gene regulation, from pure mathematics to chemical engineering. Every discipline is a new lens.
🛠️ Engineer a Better Future
Knowledge without action is just trivia. I want to take what I learn and engineer real solutions — in medicine, in biotech, in AI — to make the future tangibly better for everyone, not just the privileged few.
🤝 Help Humanity
At the core, everything I do comes back to one thing: helping people. Whether it's through medicine, through building communities like Telos Circle and The Residency, or through open science — the goal is collective progress.
