The Australian Supercars Championship
In 2015 I moved to Australia and joined the Red Bull Holden Racing team as a Data and Performance Engineer. The highlight was 2017 when our car driven by 7 times Champion Jamie Whincup won the championship.
In 2019 I took on the responsibility of race engineering our Development Series car with driver Kurt Kostecki. Our efforts lead to 2nd place in our first championship year. |
DTM
My career in motorsport started working for the Mercedes team in the German Touring Car Championship (DTM). For 5 years I have been the data and performance engineer of Gary Paffett.
I'm specialized in tyre performance including tyre tests on a tyre dyno. |

Becoming an engineer
I was born in the same little town in Germany as Gottlieb Daimler who invented the first automobile and raised in the same region as Bertha Benz, the first person to drive an automobile over a long distance. It wasn't that obvious to me but the connection to cars and the automotive has always been there.
I didn't see myself being an engineer until I did my first internship at the Daimler AG. Only then I got fascinated by the new technologies and automotive world. The "Fascination Motorsport" is what got me into racing but the results of hard work and perseverance made it my passion. |
