About me

Career

School & apprenticeship

After finishing district school in Muri AG, I started a 4-year apprenticeship as a design engineer at MAN Diesel & Turbo Schweiz AG in Zurich in 2010.

I completed the first two years of my apprenticeship at the AZW training centre in Winterthur. During this time, I discovered my passion for theatre and joined the Junges Theater Winterthur.

Military service

After completing my apprenticeship, I continued to work at MAN and did part of my military service with the Swiss Air Force in Dübendorf.

First job as project manager

In 2015, I changed careers and took a job as a junior project manager at A3 Erlebnismanufaktur AG in Buchrain LU. In exhibition booth construction, I was able to apply my knowledge from my apprenticeship in a new environment and learnt the basics of project management.

Civil service

After about a year in exhibition stand construction, I started my first community service assignment for UNICEF Switzerland. I supported fundraising projects in German-speaking Switzerland and gained an in-depth insight into how NGOs work. After a very exciting few months at UNICEF, I immediately embarked on a second period of community service. As part of the emergency mission in Uri, I worked with my civilian colleagues to ensure that the village of Bristen was connected to the outside world by shuttle bus and cable car.

In 2017, I worked again through the summer as a design engineer at Notterkran AG in Boswil AG.

Studies and start-ups

Immediately afterwards, I started the one-year vocational maturity school in Aarau. At the same time, I worked at Securitas AG in Lucerne.

After gaining my vocational maturity, I started studying computer science at the FHNW in Brugg. At the beginning, I studied full-time and worked in various positions at events and for different companies during the summer holidays.

In spring 2020, I founded TEQLY. Together with friends from my studies, I built up the company despite the lockdown and we were able to move into our first own offices in Brugg directly opposite the FHNW in autumn 2020. We specialised in the digitalisation of SMEs and the development of applications. Despite a difficult environment after the company was founded, we were able to build up a customer base of well-known companies from various industries and realise various projects within a short space of time. At the same time, I was able to support Orxys AG from Bern in the operation of the Corona test platform PROCESS and the development of the comprehensive event software solution EventOn.

Aktuelle Anstellung & Master Studium

Since the end of 2023, I have been managing various IT innovation projects for the SWICA healthcare organisation. The regulatory challenging insurance environment and the high complexity of the projects fulfil me very much and I am looking forward to all the projects that are still in the pipeline! 🚀 Parallel to my work, I have been studying for the Swiss International MBA at the FHNW since the beginning of 2025. 🎓
