As a teenager, cycling to school, I fantasized about what I would do later. I remember wanting to bring people or parties together, without knowing at that time whether a profession would fit. So, out of my love for nature, I first studied garden and landscape architecture and business administration. In my private life I enjoy nature. I play golf and walk with my family, preferably in hilly and mountainous landscapes. The constantly changing perspective fascinates me. From a distance a route seems logical and doable, but once there it can turn out very differently. I like that challenge, where flexibility is at least as important as good preparation.
