About me

I was born in Trossingen, a small town in Baden-Württemberg, southern Germany, known to be a town full of music (Musikstadt) where I spent my first ten years of school. Afterwards I visited Technisches Gymnasium Villingen-Schwenningen where I obtained the Abitur.
After finishing my study in computer science at the Universität Karlsruhe I got a job at the Institut für Algorithmen und Kognitive Systeme (IAKS).

Since the age of seven, I've been playing chromatic harmonica. Over more than ten years I was performing together with my friends Volker Neipp (chord harmonica) and Andreas Schnell (bass harmonica) forming the harmonica trio Die Goschehobler. Today I'm still playing harmonica in the Orchester Hohnerklang, Trossingen.

From time to time you can see me riding the bike in the area of Trossingen.
