About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Brew the best beer Aachen has ever seen.

ABOUT ME

People who know me, experience me as a sincere, responsible and open-minded guy, who knows where he wants to go and will do anything to get there. People who know me better, know that I am still searching for that goal.

I am usually excited about what I am doing. Whether this involves my current research in chemical engineering, planning to start a business, traveling, or going out and meet people. I love to dance and sing, but I will only do it when feeling comfortable. I enjoy to talk to and listen to people with positive charisma. I can give good advice, but I can also take some. I like to be creative and develop new ideas. I can get very excited about good music, books, movies or tv shows.

I worked in various places and thus have experience in a lot of different fields. I love my two cats and I am very good with horses. I love to drive fast cars and do sports rather than watching it.

PHILOSOPHY

All knowledge is self knowledge. (B. Lee)

I honestly believe in the good intention of every human beeing and I regret nothing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I come from a family, where almost everybody is a professional musician except me. :D
I like Florence and the Machine, Buena Vista Social Club, Pan-Pot, Lana Del Rey, Sean Paul, Damian Marley, Beethoven and Swedish House Mafia. It really depends on the mood, but if I want to push myself I need a lot of bass. If you want to see me go crazy we have to go to a dancehall club. :)
Good movies like Fight Club, The Matrix and a lot by Quentin Tarantino.
I can get very excited by tv shows. E.g. LOST, HIMYM and The Game of Thrones induce strong emotions in me.
I like literature such as Dostojewski, Tolkien, M. Crichton and Ayn Rand.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding on horse-back, standing on top of a mountain after a long and exhausting hike and to perform on stage in front of hundreds of people.
