Surfing is my passion – even though I don’t ride the board full-time, I love my job which makes the sport possible in the first place.

I head to the water twice a week, and even more often before competitions. Additional to that I go daily to the gym for strength, endurance, and flexibility.

I’m convinced: success doesn’t start on the wave, but with structure, discipline, and persistence.

Surfing is much more than a sport for me – it’s a lifestyle, a challenge, and a community.

Even outside the board, I am fully committed: as Vice President of the German Surfing Association, I work for the development and professionalization of the sport—with know-how, team spirit, and organizational talent.

What matters most to me is adaptive surfing. Actively shaping this area and developing it inclusively is a true labor of love for me.
