My journey began in my home country of Germany, where I embarked on a long and successful career in the medical field. For almost a decade, as a respected healthcare professional, I served diligently at the prestigious University Hospital of Hamburg Eppendorf, where my expertise and compassion touched the lives of many.

Driven by a thirst for adventure and new experiences, I ventured to New Zealand, where I continued my remarkable career at Tauranga Hospital and my own private practice. My commitment to excellence and unwavering dedication to patient care earned me the admiration and respect of colleagues and patients alike.

The allure of sun-kissed shores and dancing waves beckoned me irresistibly, drawing me into the embrace of Newcastle, NSW. In the coastal charm of this city, I felt a connection to the warmth of the sun and the calming rhythm of the sea. Here, amidst the ocean breeze, I found a peaceful retreat—a place where I could unwind and feel at ease. Newcastle's shores became my sanctuary, offering solace to my soul and a sense of belonging to my heart.

Beyond my professional achievements, I embrace life's simple pleasures with unmatched enthusiasm. As an avid surfer, I find solace and joy in the rhythmic dance of waves, where I feel most at home amidst the ocean's vast embrace. My passion for outdoor adventures extends to my love for BBQ gatherings, where I delight in sharing laughter, stories, and good food with cherished companions.

My trademark Birkenstock sandals carried me on countless journeys, symbolizing my laid-back demeanor and genuine authenticity.
