My mission: Experiencing emotions together
Racing is my passion. It all started at the age of 14, when I first sat in a racing kart. After that my path was predestined. My initial enthusiasm for speed very soon turned into a desire to make racing my profession. Thanks to an individual sponsorship by my former team boss Theo Hemkemeyer, I was able to establish myself within three years in the top group of national kart championships. Almost inevitably, at the age of 17, I entered the ADAC Formula Masters / ADAC Formula 4, which is considered the “junior school for racers.” These two intense years in the Formula cockpit encouraged me to continue on my path. Today I can look back on two more years in GT Sports in the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany with Team Project-1 under the direction of Hans Bernd Kamps, who I am very much indebted to. He not only understood how to make me a better racer but also enabled me to emotionally touch the spectators and business partners of the team both on and off the race track, creating an intense “we” feeling. This experience of being together as a team, touching people and experiencing emotions together drives me to always give the best and be an honest partner. So even though I drive alone on the track, I know a big WE behind me. I would like to give back my support to all of you through high performance and emotional experiences.
I am happy to be available to my partners for joint activities both on race weekends and between races, such as for driver training or business-related events.
