Agile Coach
Born and raised in Hamburg, I spent 7 years in England after graduating from the University Of Applied Sciences Wedel with BSc. Media Informatics in 2008. As a fullstack web developer I became familiar with agile methods. Since I am back in Hamburg, I am on a journey from software developer, project manager and Scrum Master to Agile Leadership Coach. In 2020 I completed a training to become a value-based Agile Coach. As a permanent employee of 7 companies from the science & research, real estate, internet technologies, banking and logistic sectors, member of 20 development & operations teams as well as facilitator moderator of various management boards, I look back on a wide range of practical experiences in everyday life of agile companies.
Qigong & Mindfulness
Starting with a mindfulness challenge in January 2020, I have since attended many different mindfulness, relaxation and Qigong courses and continued my self-study in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the teaching of the five elements or phases of transformation (wood, fire, earth, metal and water) and Taoist philosophy. Since April 2024, I have been a certified teacher of medical Qigong (Zhineng Qigong) and have been teaching Qigong and mindfulness techniques for stress management on a freelance basis and as part of my permanent position as an Agile Coach. Since August 2025, I have been a certified course instructor for autogenic training and mindfulness techniques for stress management. I will complete my training as a relaxation therapist in November 2025.
