Intrinsic drive. Specific traits. That is what I look for in a founder, and it is what carried me from the Dortmund academy at eight to the national team at eighteen and a World Cup final in Rio at twenty-two.

Today I play for Eintracht Frankfurt, where I have been since 2022, and I run Companion M, backing intrinsically driven teams at pre-seed and seed across AI, cybersecurity, and techbio, more than 70 companies so far. I invest the way I train: with focus and discipline, and only with hundred percent conviction. Ask away.
