I grew up in Gummersbach, a town east of Cologne, Germany. Following the Leaving Cert and Mandatory Civilian Service, I studied Medicine at the University of Greifswald, Germany, a beautiful town north of Berlin. I worked as fully qualified General Practitioner in Germany, New Zealand and Ireland.
I speak fluent English and Italian while my native tongue is German. Furthermore, I have a general grasp of other languages, including French, Spanish, and Russian.
I enjoy living in the West of Ireland, the Atlantic sea and the mountainous landscape provide plenty opportunities for a fulfilled lifestyle.
