I’m starting a new chapter as an independent engineer: https://www.flyative.ch
Over the past 15 years, I’ve designed, built, and flown over 30 aircraft prototypes—from simple gliders to eVTOLs and tethered kites. Along the way, I’ve developed custom physics simulations, navigation, and control systems from scratch.
Now, I help turn ideas into flying hardware.
If you’re developing UAVs, eVTOLs, or airborne wind energy systems, I can support you with: Lean simulation tools: multibody dynamics, tethered applications, HIL/SIL flight control stacks Wing and vehicle design: my own gradient-based shape optimization and aerodynamic analysis, matched to your mission Prototyping: in-house composite workshop and flight test support
Have an idea that needs to get airborne? Send me a message here—I’d love to hear about it.
