BIO
I am a food aficionado and my mission is to revolutionize the food system. Before founding QOA, I co-founded a company called 27pilots. At 27pilots I supported leading corporations to boost their innovation by collaborating with startups. During my time at 27pilots, I worked with >5000 B2B startups on selling their product to corporates and learned what it means to grow a 27pilots to a 7-digit revenue and 30+ employees. I am holding a Ph.D. in Material Science and Mechanical Engineering.
