About me

Born in Germany in 1982, I grew up in a multicultural family with a German mother and a New Zealander father. Today, I live in Switzerland with my South Korean wife and our daughter Ayun.

My professional background is in application engineering, with experience in different technical industries, including composites, mechanical and plant engineering, automated conveyor systems, material flow, and production flow solutions for manufacturing environments.

What connects these fields is the ability to understand complex technical requirements, communicate clearly with customers and suppliers, and translate ideas into practical solutions. Intercultural communication, structured documentation, analytical thinking, and the willingness to travel — especially to East Asia — have always been important parts of my professional profile.

Before moving to Switzerland, I lived and worked in Taiwan for one year. This experience strengthened my interest in international cooperation, different cultures, and working across borders.

What motivates me most is working together with people: understanding technical challenges, finding practical solutions, and building bridges between customers, suppliers, products, and applications.

Outside of work, my family is at the center of my life. I also enjoy photography, travelling, art, hiking, and city life.
