About me

I am a strategic advisor, curator, and writer working at the intersection of business, culture, and social impact.

Currently, I advise the CEO and initiator of the Europe Asia Economic Summit (EAES) on cross-regional strategy, stakeholder engagement, and public programming. I curate and moderate high-level panels on topics such as sustainability, investment, and geopolitics—including The Geopolitics of the Art Market at VOLTA Art Fair 2025, a flagship conversation on culture, capital, and representation.

As Founder of AfroSwissters, I lead a growing platform that connects and empowers Afro-descendant women in Switzerland and globally. We produce curated programs that span intergenerational mentorship, diaspora investment, and community storytelling—including the 2025 Talking Business series co-hosted with innovators across Kenya, the U.S., and Europe.

In 2025, I launched The Artistic Conversations •, a six-part public dialogue series hosted in collaboration with HeadsQuarter, bringing together leaders in art, technology, labor, and legacy. The series explores how creativity shapes collective futures—through unscripted conversations rooted in reflection, presence, and systems thinking.

I am also a Co-Creator of Black Future Week, where I co-lead marketing and communications, partnerships, and program design. My work bridges storytelling and structural change, with a focus on equitable growth and visibility across sectors.

Previously, I worked at Credit Suisse AG, most recently as Project Manager in Global Sustainability, supporting the leadership for cross-departmental initiatives in ESG, risk governance, and strategy. Earlier, I supported high-net-worth clients across Sub-Saharan Africa, the UAE, and Hong Kong as Junior Client Manager in International Wealth Management. I was active in networks such as the Black Professionals Network and Next Generation Network.

Beyond finance, I’ve consulted UNICEF, contributed to development work in Tanzania via the Albert Koch Foundation, and support the funding strategy for the University of Zurich Foundation, focusing on trans disciplinary partnerships in digital finance and public-private innovation.

In 2025, I independently published my debut book, Mensch. Maschine. Mit Herz.—a personal and interdisciplinary reflection on AI, caregiving, and self-inquiry, written between Zurich, Doha, and Singapore. The book blends storytelling, critical thinking, and emotional clarity, offering tools for navigating identity and technology with presence and heart.

I hold a Master’s degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science, a Bachelor’s in International Relations, and speak English and German fluently, with charmingly basic knowledge of French and Italian.

 

Resilient, curious, and cross-sectoral by design, I build bridges between systems, people, and ideas—with clarity, care, and intent.

Interests

I am a foodie at heart and love to explore new tastes and flavors. When I'm not indulging in culinary delights, you can find me behind a camera, capturing the beauty of food and its artistry through writingphoto- and videography. Both of these passions bring me joy and allow me to express my creativity in unique and satisfying ways.
