Ghostwriter. Sparing Partner. Mentor.
Writing. My personal Journey.
Call me Albert. I was born in Tajikistan and came to Germany as a child. As an outsider, I had to learn to listen and to deconstruct culture, language, and human nature to understand the world around me. Books were my friends, and writing was my favourite language.
This continued when I left home while still in high school. I had to learn to read people, make quick decisions, and take full responsibility for my life while my peers were worried about grades. My love for understanding the human story and literature led me to study German and History. Once I enrolled, I understood my real passion was for systems.
I was awarded a scholarship from the Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes to study Physical Geography and Philosophy. This trained me to view the world through the lens of interconnected systems, informed by scientific principles and logic. After graduating top of my class, my academic journey continued, earning degrees with distinction in Physical Therapy, Industrial & Communication Psychology, and Applied Therapeutic Sciences.
I have been a writer and interviewer for over two decades. Initially, I wrote for myself, then my study mates, my lecturers and professors. Living abroad, I was quickly in demand as a ghostwriter for leaders, experts, and founders across industries.
Writing has always been the one constant. It's the craft that brings me joy, and it's the tool that made me independent.
My Work & Mission
My Work. Thriving Partnerships.
My professional ghostwriting and mentoring services were born from the work itself. For years, leaders and founders I interviewed told me that our conversations helped them see their own ideas more clearly. They are the ones who convinced me to offer authentic writing as a formal service. Being a ghostwriter and mentor is an extension of my core craft.
I genuinely enjoy helping others find their most authentic self. This paid partnership is a high-trust and confidential engagement. The results we create together belong to my clients and are not made publicly available. My pro bono writing, on the other hand, serves as both my portfolio and proof of my skills. This is how I fund my life and my mission. It allows me to live in India, where I see the most significant potential to apply my personal philosophy of Ahimsa and contribute to lasting, meaningful change.
My Mission. Pro Bono Impact.
My mission is based in India. It is where I have chosen to live. It is where my pro bono work can make the biggest impact. This mission is funded entirely by my paid services and is my way of giving back to the planet and to society. All interviews and content pieces I create are 100% free accessible and are aimed at providing content for readers who aspire to contribute to the greater good.
My mission driven work is published in two pro bono series:
Alba's Sustainable Encounters (ASE) is my contribution to the planet. It is a weekly series that deconstructs the philosophies of India's sustainability experts & leaders. We go beyond their projects to reveal the human operating systems and core beliefs that are essential for building a habitat that ensures peaceful coexistence.
Alba's NoSmalltalk X (NoSx) is my contribution to society. This is a high-impact series dedicated to deconstructing the critical and often unspoken taboos in India, including cultural stigmas and issues of rights, sexuality, and pleasure.
It is my way of using an uncompromised voice to foster honest conversations and help drive social evolution.

What People Say About Me.
Great Work Advocating
Sustainable Development through
Insights and Knowledge sharing
I am deeply pleased with your efforts [Albert] in advocating sustainable development through insights and knowledge sharing. Sustainability is a shared objective and cannot be pursued in isolation. It is critical that thought leaders and industry experts are able to share their perspectives and experiences, allowing diverse stakeholders to learn and adopt best practices. Your contributions will act as a catalyst and help bridge the knowledge or experience gap for those looking to make contributions to a sustainable future. Kudos to the team and keep up the good work.
