I'm slouched in the front seat of a police cruiser in NRW, my posture wrecked from hours on duty. It's been raining for 23 days straight. The weight of my service weapon digs into my hip, a constant reminder of the life I'm trapped in. Five consecutive night shifts have gifted me dark circles deep enough to stretch from here to Rome and back.
Dissatisfaction doesn’t even begin to describe it. Every spare moment between dealing with drunk troublemakers, grim crime scenes, and defiant traffic violators is spent on one thing—building my escape plan.
Early shift. Late shift. Night shift. Repeat. But in between? Business. Hustle. The blueprint for a life on my own terms.

Now, I’m creating a business on my own terms, piece by piece, while embracing the freedom of remote work.
