My experience for your benefit

Based on many years in industry, in a research institution, at universities and as a consultant to SMEs and start-ups, I can draw on a wealth of experience. Interdisciplinary and strategic thinking are the foundations of my success.

I am continuously expanding my portfolio of technology and application areas. It currently includes structured development methods of Systems Engineering for all system or component levels as well as their application to innovative, environmentally friendly architectural concepts for classic or – in the sign of comprehensive e-mobility – electric flight propulsion systems. It also covers bionics using models from nature, anatomy or physiology.

Innovation projects on materials, lightweight design and manufacturing processes contribute to saving valuable resources. In the course of advancing digitisation, AI and Industry 4.0 are important building blocks in the projects I develop.

My deep understanding of structure-mechanical, aerothermal and acoustic phenomena and methods allows me to present complex technical relationships in a clear and comprehensive manner. In an analytical and solution-oriented way, I also grasp the specifics of your business model in context. Credibility and reliability are my hallmarks. Many years of working with people from different cultures and languages have enriched me. I am committed to working with you for your sustainable benefit.

The centre of my life

… is located in a Brandenburg village south of Berlin.

Years ago, my wife and I chose to settle here, and we regularly congratulate ourselves. Digitally connected, we have our finger on the pulse. At the same time, exercising outdoors and observing nature, on land and on water, allows me to focus on the essentials even in turbulent times.
