With over 19 years of experience across roles as customer, partner, competitor, and now Solutions Engineer at Cisco, I specialize in designing and implementing innovative network solutions focused on Software Defined Access (SDA), Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE), and network programmability. As a Cisco Live Distinguished Speaker, STLDP Innovation Coach, Career Mentor, and part-time instructor, I’m passionate about empowering individuals and teams—and giving back to the community as founder of the Swiss Cisco NetOps User Group. My technical focus spans automation with Ansible and Terraform, infrastructure-as-code workflows, and building AI-ready networks.
