Before coming to WI as a volunteer, I worked as a software engineer for five years. A good friend, who always inspires me to take on new challenges and experiences, turned me on to WI. At WI, I want to dedicate my time, energy, and youth to protecting the wild places of this earth. I will use my work experience mainly for improvements in the organization and cooperation in the IT sector, but I will also help where I can.

My journey into environmental conservation began in my childhood, which I spent exploring forests, rivers and mountains and building a strong connection to the earth. This passion led me to pursue a career focused on tackling pressing environmental issues and promoting positive change.

In my role at Wilderness International, I combine scientific knowledge with practical action to tackle complex challenges. I approach every task with dedication and creativity - whether it's conducting research to understand the impacts of climate change, implementing community-based conservation projects or advocating for policies that prioritize environmental protection.

Collaboration is at the heart of my work. By forging partnerships with other environmentalists, community members, policy makers and industry leaders, I strive to build consensus and drive collective action towards common goals.

Every day I am inspired by the resilience of nature and the tireless efforts of my colleagues. Together, we are working towards a future where people live in harmony with the planet and ensure that future generations can continue to enjoy the beauty and bounty of wild nature.

I really enjoy the fresh morning air in the forest and love waking up early to watch the sunrise through the trees - it's a peaceful and energizing moment. That's one of the reasons why I love trail running and trekking.

Outside of work, I am passionate about running - especially after a long day at the office. I often take part in long distance trail races, so consistent training over time is an essential part of my routine.

I'm also a big fan of plants! I have a small garden on my balcony, which gives me a lot of pleasure and helps me to de-stress. It's my little way of staying in touch with nature every day.

It is a pleasure for me to be able to protect nature with my commitment. Walking through the forest and climbing up the mountain to look at beautiful landscapes and impressive nature and enjoy the fresh air is something I like to do. That's why it's important to me to protect nature. I also love trees, plants and gardens. In my free time, I often take care of my small balcony garden. I enjoy watching and enjoying the growing process. It also helps me combat stress.

Every day I am motivated by the urgent need to address environmental issues and the hope that through collective efforts we can create a more sustainable and equitable future for generations to come. Working in an environmental organization is not just a job for me; it is a calling and a lifelong commitment to protect our planet's precious natural resources

Driven by a deep sense of responsibility for our planet, I am committed to finding innovative solutions to environmental challenges and advocating for policies that prioritize sustainability. Working at Wilderness International is not just a job for me; it's a calling - an opportunity to contribute to a healthier, more resilient planet for all its inhabitants.
