I am based in Paderborn, Germany and started my professional lighting career in 1995. Having done mainly Musicals and Theatre/Opera on various ETC Consoles across Germany for five years, I joined Lightpower, the company that distributes MA Lighting worldwide, as product manager/tech support in the year 2000

2002 I left Lightpower and went back freelancing again. Over the years I have worked on various Musicals, TV-Shows, Corporate Shows, Theme Parks and Tours programming small to large scale including Media Servers and LEDs as well as Moving Light and Conventionals throughout Europe, the US, Asia and Australia. During the last couple of years I have also done more and more lighting designs for Corporate and Theatre shows.

Furthermore I have a long time experience in teaching all levels of grandMA classes including the new grandMA 2 console. I have also supported large scale shows as Network Administrator or Project Support being responsible for the Lighting Control Network and 3D-Visualization with grandMA 3D on shows such as the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 and 2007.
