Por­trait

Ambi­ti­on, curio­si­ty, and dri­ve are in my DNA. To bring this powerful trio in sync took me a serious while. While school and stu­dies came natu­ral­ly to me, I was a pro­per plough hor­se in sports: enjoy­ing the grind and never stop­ping when the coach said to. And while this was good for many years, I know it bet­ter today: more is not neces­s­a­ri­ly bet­ter. But we often need to learn this the hard way.

The pas­si­on and care for good nutri­tion I lear­nt from my par­ents, had a big influence on my life as an ath­le­te and my choice of stu­dies. Being a stu­dent allo­wed to life and com­pe­te like a pro­fes­sio­nal athlete.
Even if I had to quit my care­er as an acti­ve tri­ath­le­te for some major health pro­blems, tur­ning to the cor­po­ra­te world was a good step for me. Today, the com­bi­na­ti­on of aca­de­mia, sports and a care­er in inter­na­tio­nal cor­po­ra­ti­ons is one of my big­gest assets.

This com­pre­hen­si­ve tool­box helps me when working with a broad audi­ence. Con­tri­bu­ting to a bet­ter socie­ty is the visi­on of my company.

I want to sup­port and inspi­re peo­p­le to take more con­trol of their health, be and act more accoun­ta­ble and beco­me healt­hi­er and hap­pier all along.
