Since 1991, I am working for the German Foreign Office. I was posted to Bulgaria, Pakistan, Botswana, South Africa and Jordan. After my last assignment to Kampala/Uganda I returned to Berlin in 2019 where I am presently working in the Head Quarter of the Foreign Office until my next posting in 2024.

​

Early I developed a love for photography. Thanks to my profession, I have the opportunity to travel a lot and thus have access to local communities and people in their natural surrounding around the world. Portraits and people photography is clearly what I like most. But I also enjoy taking images of breathtaking landscapes, architecture, perspectives, especially in black and white. During my many years in Africa, I did not miss any opportunity to study the life and behaviour of African animals and was blessed with interesting encounters.

In 2015, I was the winner of the photo contest "Travel" at the German "Digital Photo" Magazine with the picture "The Flutist".
