Why I Do What I Do
Growing up hearing my father's stories of arriving in Switzerland as a young refugee, working as a cook while dreaming of becoming an engineer, shaped everything I believe about possibility and responsibility. His journey from kitchen to engineering office wasn't just about personal success—it was about proving that with support and opportunity, anyone can contribute meaningfully to society. That's why I choose to lead, to advocate, and to build.
Student Council President
Leading 1000+ students at Alte Kantonsschule Aarau, I coordinate 10+ main council members and 40+ class delegates. I organized furniture (sofas) for student comfort, delivered welcoming speeches to reduce first-year anxiety, and handle diverse cultural backgrounds with diplomatic communication.
Environmental Leadership - Green Team
Led comprehensive sustainability initiatives including the 222-year time capsule project, clothing swaps (Kleidertausch), and environmental film evenings. I contacted every gymnasium in Switzerland to create connections and promote hope-based climate awareness rather than fear-based campaigns.
Community Bridge Builder
Through UMA Leben & Lernen, I provided weekly language support and integration assistance to refugee families. This work reflects my core strength: the ability to connect with people from all backgrounds and help them find their place in a new community.
WIWO Business Simulation
Completed intensive one-week business simulation program, gaining hands-on experience in strategic decision-making, team coordination, and real-world business challenges. This experience enhanced my organizational and leadership capabilities.

The Greenteam Story
One of the Four Who Cared • The Good Times
So the Greenteam wasn't popular at all in the beginning, but me and 3 other friends thought 'let's change this.' Instead of making people worried about everything, we approached them with different ideas. We wanted to let them rethink that saving the climate isn't boring and we actually can do something.
