About

By being involved in and taking on responsibility in national and international nuclear projects I developed my expertise. The range of the projects is from international research projects via safety assessments and enhancement projects for operating Nuclear Power Plants to large scale international nuclear projects such as Nuclear New Build. I've lead national and international teams conducting, supporting or supervising the above mentioned projects I am currently responsible for the operations, results and direction of a company that supports organisations worldwide in the field of radioactive waste management. I have restructured the company due to a complete generational change in the management team and a new ownership structure. We provide consulting and support services to public and private energy, waste management, and mining companies, as well as to expert organisations and authorities covering all aspects of radioactive waste management, mining, and related subjects. At the University of Hanover I earned a Masters in Engineering (Dipl-Ing) and a Doctorate in Engineering (Dr.-Ing.) at the Ruhr-University of Bochum. Main expertise: International project management, strategy development and implementation, business development, programme management and implementation, project development, governance, risk management, energy economics, nuclear technology, radioactive waste management.
