Welcome
thank you for visiting my site. It offers a glimpse into the work I do.
Basically, I try to understand how other people work while considering work as an essential part of human existence. I think that while working, people not just create or shape things or offer services, they also create and shape themselves and the world around them.
My own work can be separated into the three sections that you see below. Click on one of them and you will find more detailed information and maybe something of interest for you.

Beyond work…
I am priviledged to spend most of the time I am working with interesting questions and people and – most of the time – enjoy doing this. However, there is life beyond work. In this area, I share some things that I think are important for me – and that can be shared online.
As soon as I’ll find the time 😉
