"For me personally, Europe means above all freedom, diversity and joie de vivre. The opportunity to travel to other regions at any time without bureaucratic hassle and to get to know and experience people and cultures."

I have a degree in public administration and have been working for the state capital of Wiesbaden since 1981.

As an administrative officer, I had the opportunity to get to know and help shape a wide variety of administrative areas of the city administration, including over ten years in the area of municipal international relations and town twinning.

Since July 2022, I have been working in Christian Hepp's team to set up the new Europe and Funding Management department. I am very pleased to have the opportunity to contribute my ideas and experience to help shape this area and make Europe a positive experience for the people in our city.
