At the intersection of lived experience, global health, and mental health policy.
Through Global Mental Health Solutions, I help partners move from evidence to implementation, from stand-alone interventions to integration within public systems, and from global ambition to contextually relevant solutions.

Lived Experience
At a glance
I’ve spent nearly two decades working across strategy, policy, and global health — with over a decade focused on global mental health. I've worked for the World Economic Forum and World Health Organization; collaborated with other multilaterals, NGOs, and multinational companies; served on Lived Experience councils and advisory boards; (co-)founded two companies of my own; and chaired the Board of a US-based 501(c)3.
My lived experience has carried clinical labels - "psychosis," "bipolar," "depression," "anxiety," "suicidal ideation." None of these fully captures it; "psychosis" comes closest. But ... you get me in a 1:1 conversation about the universe that has opened up for me as a result of what I've been through, and I'll definitely make you late to your next thing.
I've also been through life, as all of us have. I'm an active father; I have been an active partner. I love dogs but live in an urban apartment here in Geneva so don't have one. I love to write pretty much anything -- but especially prose, poetry and music. I am learning how to woodwork. I don't have a gallbladder anymore. Didn't someone once write that we contain multitudes? (Yes, more or less.)
Take a spin around and get in touch if anything here resonates. I'd welcome a conversation.
