I am an entrepreneur with a solid track record writing and obtaining substantial non-dilutive funding.  Over the past 8 years I wrote multiple grant applications for my own ventures or for clients both at local, national and EU level.

I am currently the co-founder and COO of the ETH spin-off CellX Biosolutions which uses bacteria to treat chemical waste. Prior to co-founding CellX, I spent three years coaching over 200 startups from ETH Zurich at the ETH Student Project House. In this role I accompanied projects with an incredible variety of product and technologies from AI SaaS to medical devices, new bio-based materials and next generation batteries.

I  hold Master degrees in European Public Affairs from Sciences Po Paris as well as in private law from Université Paris 8 and have further education in corporate finance from ESCP Business School.  Before moving to Switzerland, I started my career as a consultant in EU regulatory affairs and innovation funding in Brussels. I then then became CFO and deputy managing director of a Paris-based social impact startup with activities in education, tech transfer and innovation consulting.

I thrive using my experience and skills helping founders to acquire funding and to go to market with breakthrough innovation.
