Personal details
Born at the Pader river of North-Rhine Westphalia, I attended the Höhere Handelsschule Paderborn (commercial college) and then concluded my vocational training as an industrial business management assistant. I completed my civilian service at the youth hostel in List / Sylt, where I gained my first experience of providing hospitality for international visitor groups. After stays of several months in North America and the UK, I was drawn to the Spree river in 1998 as a “Backpack-Berliner”.
I speak German and English.
My professional ethos is characterised by a committed and experienced approach, where safety, discretion and punctuality are of prime importance. As well as being well-mannered and eloquent in tone, flexibility is another of my congenial qualities. I am always polite, friendly and open towards my clients, even in stressful situations, and I love my job.
