A FEW MOMENTS I CAPTURED ON THE ROAD

A designer, quilt maker*, and systems thinker, raised between the medieval town of Gruyères and the city of Geneva. For the past three years, I’ve called India, home. I’ve spent the last years moving between the worlds of service, emerging technology, and product - learning how people think, how systems behave, and how design can bridge the two. Recently relocated to San Francisco, I’m now driven to design sustainable solutions for complex, systemic challenges, working with cross-disciplinary teams to unlock large-scale impact.
My interests revolve around solving complex problems with design, finding product-market fit, and building new ventures, especially in frontier markets.

*I L💘VE what David Kelley calls the "quilt maker" mindset; creatively stitching together insights to build something greater, not forcing fixed solutions, but adapting to complexity with connection.

For me, working alongside creative minds who love connecting dots and solving messy problems is exactly where curiosity turns into momentum, and where the best ideas can actually happen.

Hobby

A hobby of mine is photography, I absolutely love using it to sharpen my eye for moment, emotion, and the small, unnoticed details, especially in both geometry and human interaction.

Passion

I am drawn to creation from first principles, whether in ideas or in recipes. Cooking is another way for me to get to play with forms, colours and flavours.

Art History

I believe art history is a way to preserve the memory of humanity and pass it on to future generations. As a 2025–2026 art history student at l’École du Louvre allows me to discuss, reflect, debate and uncover what it reveals about our shared humanity. Many art works only carry meaning when placed in their context and explained through it. It is a discipline where images speak through symbols, and history becomes legible through iconography. I find that to understand a work of art is to decode the mind of a civilization.
