About

Background

I grew up in Luxembourg — small country at the heart of European finance. That proximity shaped how I see markets: interconnected, fast-moving, and full of asymmetric opportunities for those paying attention.

Studied finance at Bentley with a year at LSE. Spent time in equity capital markets, co-founded my university's chapter of Scholars of Finance, and helped manage a portion of the endowment. Moving to New York for investment banking.

Outside of work: long-distance running, lifting, and the occasional road trip. 40+ countries so far. Native in German, English, and Luxembourgish.

Thinking About

Private credit's moment

Banks retreating, private lenders filling the gap. Where does this end?

LP liquidity pressure

Distributions down, capital calls up. Something has to give.

Europe's capital markets gap

Why does the EU still lack deep equity markets? Can it be fixed?

Fundamental investing in an algo world

Does deep research still generate alpha, or has the edge moved elsewhere?
