I am anthropologist, communication, language and mental trainer and live in Freiburg. I'm interested in what shapes us as human beings, how we arrange our social relations and how we can better understand ourselves and others. I pass on my interdisciplinary theoretical and practical knowledge in my courses and coaching sessions. These are available in person in the Freiburg area (other locations on request) or regardless of location in online format, in English or German.
