About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Due to the recent death of one of my best friends I came up with a concept to raise awareness and money for breast cancer research. My project is called “BIKE4THECURE” respectively “WORKOUT4THECURE” and from mid September 2010 until the end of Oct

ABOUT ME

I guess the best and quickest way to describe myself is using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator according to which I am an ENFJ. Now, you must be going: A what? Well, an ENFJ - a person with an Extraordinary Need For Juice. No, that´s not it. ENFJs are people-focused individuals. They understand and care about people, and have a special talent for bringing out the best in others. ENFJ's main interest in life is giving love, support, and a good time to other people. They are focused on understanding, supporting, and encouraging others. They make things happen for people, and get their best personal satisfaction from this. ENFJs have a special gift with people, and are basically happy people when they can use that gift to help others. They enjoy organizing social events, tend to take their commitments seriously and in general are very reliable, loyal and do not like to disappoint others.

I am also a big animal and nature lover and try to spend as much time outdoors as possible – preferably with my 6 year old deaf Doberman Leo. He is a rescue and – of course - the greatest dog in the world. We love going for long walks, doing dog training and meeting his dog buddies to enjoy some playing time.

Each and every Saturday I voluntarily work at our local animal shelter and take care of the animals there – mostly cats and dogs, but also rabbits, rats, mice, chinchillas, birds and whatever needs to be rescued. I have been doing this for the past 5 years and it is always great to find new homes for all the animals who come to the shelter. Just take a look at the pictures…

In general I like to laugh a lot, have fun, work out, think positive and basically try to make the best of each day. Mark Twain once said: “Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day in your life." and that is basically how I look at life. In addition to this I love to travel and explore the beauty of our planet – especially the USA.
