ABOUT ME

I am curious, interested in many things, especially in art and culture. I love vintage cars.
I share my life with my children Helene (* 1999) and Johann (* 2002). They spend half the week with me.
I work as a CEO at the Academy of English.

Sport plays quite a role in my life. When I became father travelling seemed more and more a challenge. So I thought I'd rather get the world to me, founding a cricket club in my town. And it worked nicely: a lot of people from the Commonwealth play in the club.
These colours brighten up my life since then.
Development of a multicultural society with all the challenges and advantages has been a major aim of mine - and it worked best with cricket!
