People and organizations that inspire me
- Elon Musk (founder of Tesla): while the rest of the world was busy discussing the best way to solve the climate crisis, he just started. In the meanwhile, he transformed an entire industry, without government support and with a business case. Grand theories are great, but without concrete actions there is no change.
- Barack Obama: The man who inspired people all over the world to believe that change was possible and, maybe even more important, that they were part of it. It is incredible to see how this man combined vision, technology and a bottom-up approach into maybe the most incredible political campaign in history.
What I like to do in my spare time
- Learning new things and meeting new people.
- Going out with friends
- Listening to music
- Kick boxing, wind surfing and swimming
