After Studying Physical Education and sports sciences I have many years of experience in the Hospitality and Tourism Industries in the fields of Management, Events, PR and Marketing.

Until recently I worked as the Operational Director at Kandersteg International Scout Centre which is the worlds Leading Scout Centre and hosts more than 12500 guests yearly. In this position I was managing a Staff team up to 70 Persons and had the responsibility of the Centres operational budget, hiring the Staff and the general operations.

On the 4th of July 2014 I graduated from the part time Master programme of Sport, Cultural and Event Management of the University of Applied Sciences of Kufstein , Tirol, Austria.

I have a Swiss Work Permit category C
