Meet the Founder

I was born and raised in Switzerland with deep roots on both sides of the Rhine – my mother is German from just across the border, and my father was Swiss. I grew up surrounded by the culture, traditions, and flavors of this region, attending school in Switzerland and learning to cherish our heritage from an early age.

​

My background is shaped by discipline and dedication – I even served in the Swiss military, where I rose to the rank of Hauptfeldwebel (Master Sergeant) in the infantry. That experience taught me perseverance, precision, and a deep respect for teamwork – qualities I now bring into every aspect of my business.

Beyond that, I’ve always had a love for Swiss folk traditions. I grew up with Volksmusik, and I was once part of a local yodeling group – something I hope to return to soon. It’s these cultural roots and my love for authentic, simple things that inspire Volant & Crumb today.

Through my bread mixes, handmade products, and meaningful details, I want to share not just food – but a piece of my home, my heritage, and the values I was raised with. And I’m beyond excited to bring a piece of Switzerland to Colorado.
