Entrepreneurship, Master at positively influencing an audience or individuals, Goal Setting and Achieving Expert, Author, avid reader of self development articles and books, master in applying what I have learned

Cooking, Running, Reading, active member of Junior Chamber Internation as secretary for the local chapter

Because I had to take care of my wife when she was very ill in 2004, I have learned to handle the pressure of combining very long working hours with a successful private life. Because of this I now have a very stable marriage and I am surrounded with people I can trust and depend on.

I have the habit of reading at least one hour per day in an educational book and apply what I have read. As a result I gather and apply new knowledge at a rate faster than the world’s current speed of change.

My core values are honesty, authenticity and mutual respect. My business values are mutual benefits achievement, honesty and creativity. My friends and colleagues always know what I stand for and provide me with regular feedback.
