CEO
I dedicated at the age of 24 my whole life to the animal kingdom and started the mission “Hakuna Mipaka” in South Africa.
Born in Switzerland in 1992, I followed a very ordinary path to adulthood, ending up in the finance industry as a financial advisor. After a very successful year working in finances, I founded my own company, which then, over the next years, allowed me to generate the financial foundation to launch the Hakuna Mipaka project. At the age of 24 I sold the company and moved to South Africa. Nowadays, I live on my own farm of 400 hectare of pure African wilderness, I’m a member of a lion pride, a hyena’s best friend and a daddy of two monkeys. Besides that, I have built a global voice for the planet’s wildlife over the past five years, and I became the world’s most famous wildlife conservationist with more than 28 million followers on Social Networks. By following my values, I have built over the last 7 years a strong team which lives by the same values and is part of the mission. I’m happy to present to you the Hakuna Mipaka Family.
