Born in 1989 in Frankfurt am Main, I grew up in the midst of the emerging social change. I began to question many things early on and to look for alternatives to the status quo.
During my studies in economics, politics and peace & conflict studies, I dealt with ancient philosophies, future-oriented concepts and unusual approaches.
After working for international institutions in Mozambique, Jordan and Pakistan, I quickly realised that opportunities for active participation were essential for me. I received an extraordinary invitation to visit the indigenous Kogi people in Colombia, where I spent several months. They asked me to write a book for them.
This profound experience has shaped my life and professional work ever since, as I explore what our modern society and economy can learn from indigenous thinking.
