Academic background
With an M. Sc. in Human Technology in Sports and Medicine and a B. Sc. in Sport and Performance from the German Sport University Cologne, your training is grounded in current sports science and load management principles.
​This background enables evidence‑based decisions on everything from interval design to recovery, not just “feel‑good” workouts.
​
Racing experience
Since 2011, I have been racing as an amateur criterium rider, bringing first‑hand knowledge of high‑intensity, tactical racing to my coaching.
​Since 2022, I have also competed in amateur cyclocross, which helps me support athletes who race in technical, variable‑condition events.
​
Professional role
Alongside coaching, I work as a research associate, staying closely connected to emerging insights in exercise physiology, technology, and performance diagnostics.
​This combination of research and coaching allows me to translate complex data into clear, actionable training plans for everyday athletes.
Besides this role, I run my own performance testing lab equipped with CPET and lactate diagnostics for precise threshold assessments and personalized training zones.
​
Coaching focus
I enjoy working with motivated amateur and club‑level riders who want structured, data‑driven plans that still fit around work, family, and real life.
​If you want to race faster, handle intensity smarter, and understand the “why” behind your training, I would be excited to support your next steps
