Born in the seventies, my parents remember me drawing electric cars back in the eighties, in the late nineties I wrote my bachelor thesis on the feasibility of the deployment of electric Taxis in the city of Zurich in Switzerland and I always followed adventures such as the World Solar Challenge in the noughties. As an early adopter of the first large-scale production electric cars back in the 2010’s I then subsequently found my big hobby in the conversion of classic cars to electric drive up to this day.

I am not originally from an engineering background (studied business economics in the first place, my main business interests are logistics and (sustainable) supply chain management), but would call myself a generalist and fast-learner. I can easily have a pretty profound technical discussion with an electrical or mechanical engineer by now, and I always love to listen and learn. I prefer to get my hands dirty on the job rather than watching others work, so I probably would qualify as an engineer by trade. I am now even officially certified to work on high-voltage systems!

Traveling is quite an important part of my private and business life, I also spend a lot of time with cars on the road and I learned a lot about the reliability of cars, long-distance drives in electric cars and I love to share these experiences with you.

In my main job, I am a vice director of a big college of higher education in southeastern Switzerland, where my mission is to give people the power to shape a positive future for us all in many different professions, such as forestry, technology, business, construction, arts and design, and many more! And yes: Our college is also one of the leading forces supporting the garage staff in their transition towards electric mobility and high voltage systems!

I also organise events to promote electric mobility and I do speak at public events on mobility topics. 

I share my life between two of the probably most beautiful countries in the world, Switzerland and Ireland, and I am a husband and a dad of three children in their teens and early twenties. 

Oh – and the Teddy bear in the pictures is my garage-mascot named Garmed.

If there’s anything else you’d like to know, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me!
