About me

An engineer at heart, an entrepreneur by trade. I work hard and enjoy the ride.

I'm Sven, 22, CEO and co-founder of Monipath: an app that makes your finances easy to keep track of. I also build software, apps and websites, and on weekends I work on my bike.

My day starts early: train first, then build. Work happens anywhere, at a desk or out on the water. In between I enjoy life: a good lunch, a week in the sun or a walk through the city without rushing.
