Partner, Kepler Cannon  ·  Lecturer, WHU

I work at the intersection of technology and operations — advising organizations on AI adoption, blockchain, tokenization, and supply chain strategy. I am a partner at Kepler Cannon in New York City, where I lead the AI & Analytics practice, and am affiliated with WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management, where my research focuses on production management and digital operations. My work spans the full arc from emerging technology research to real-world implementation. Based in the US, I travel frequently to Europe for work and family, which keeps me connected to developments on both sides of the Atlantic.
