Education
I grew up in Bremen and graduated from high school there. I went to Lingen (Ems) to study for my bachelor's degree in industrial engineering, and I earned my master's degree at the University of Warwick. The mix of down-to-earth, SME-oriented training and challenging international study with a strong network continues to influence me to this day.
