CEO & Founder
  • After more than 20 years in international banking, I decided it was time to embark on a new journey and establish my own company.
  • My vision was clear: to help people turn their dreams of life at sea into reality.
  • With this goal in mind, I founded Captiva Yachting Advisory in Vienna, Austria, in 2017. Since then, we have successfully delivered more than 50 yachts to clients around the world.
  • I am especially proud of the trusted team, strong partner network and loyal client base we have built over the years.
