My Service Portfolio

What can I help you with?

Four areas where real-world experience can save you time, money and a lot of unnecessary trial and error.

PHOTOGRAPHY & MARKETING

For outdoor brands, tourism businesses, expedition companies and agencies.

I work with outdoor businesses to turn genuine expertise into stronger products, better storytelling and more effective marketing.

I bring an insider's perspective to product development, positioning, photography, content and expedition-market insight.

POLAR EXPEDITION CONSULTANCY

Thinking about Antarctica or the Arctic?

I help you navigate the reality behind the glossy expedition brochure from choosing the right trip and operator to equipment, preparation, photography, logistics and expectations.

Whether it's your first polar journey or a considerably more ambitious objective, we can work through it together.

EXPEDITION TRAINING

Preparation starts long before the mountain.

Get practical advice for your next trek, expedition or high-altitude objective: from equipment and packing to route planning, mountain skills, logistics and preparation for remote environments.

Sessions are built around your actual objective, not a generic training plan.

ALPS & DOLOMITES ROUTE DESIGN

Real routes. Local knowledge. No guesswork.

I design hiking, trekking, biking and e-bike routes for agencies and tourism businesses selling self-guided experiences in the Alps and Dolomites.

Based in St. Moritz, I bring local knowledge of the Engadin alongside experience designing routes and itineraries across the wider Alpine region.

HOW IT WORKS

03
TALK IT THROUGH

We meet online for a focused, one-to-one consultation.

04
LEAVE WITH A PLAN

You'll leave with practical advice, decisions to make and clear next steps, rather than another 20 tabs open in your browser.

  • The internet can tell you what's out there. It can't tell you what it's really like.

    AI can produce an itinerary in seconds. Influencers can show you a destination in 30 seconds.

    But neither necessarily knows whether the route actually makes sense, what conditions you are likely to encounter, what equipment you genuinely need, or which small logistical details can completely change an expedition.

    That's where experience matters.

    My advice comes from years of working in the mountains, Arctic and Antarctic; guiding, crossing, photographing and operating in remote environments.

    You don't need another algorithm-generated packing list.

    You need someone who has actually been there.

  • I've spent more than a decade turning adventure from an idea into something that actually works in the real world.

    I've climbed the Seven Summits, worked as a mountain and polar expedition guide, crossed remote environments, operated in Antarctica and the Arctic, designed routes in the Swiss Alps and worked with expedition companies, tourism businesses and outdoor brands.

    I've also spent years behind the camera, creating photography and visual stories from the environments I work in.

    So when we talk, you're not getting advice based on a weekend course or a few thousand Instagram followers. You're getting experience earned in the field.
