About me
I grew up in Frankfurt / Main (Germany) and studied biology in the USA and at the University of Marburg in Germany. After my doctorate I worked in sales and marketing in the pharmaceutical industry for five years. As a mother of two children, I adjusted to self-employment with more flexibility. I lived with my family in the United States for six years before coming to Zurich. For me, it is important to check goals for consistency with inner values and motives, to set them realistically and to apply them with determination and persistence.

Sports biography - sucess happens when your goals match your motives
At the age of 20 I discovered the positive effects of running marathons and triathlons and took part in many competitions. In the meantime I switched to Tennis and play tournaments in my free time. Competitive sport has influenced me and helps me to reflect honestly and to recognize my own contribution to the outcome of situations and to distinguish it from outside influences. Besides, competitive sport supports me in unknown and challenging situations. For me, competition in sports is representative of our attitude in life - we show ourselves under competitive pressure how we often react under pressure in other life situations.
Why in the coaching business?
What I love about coaching is working with people's resources and the versatility. I enjoy supporting people to succeed and to see them exhaust their potential.
