ABOUT ME
My path connects professional sport, music, and live marketing. As a DFB A-license coach, I worked in elite youth football at 1. FC Kaiserslautern and SV Wehen Wiesbaden, while at the same time building a strong connection to music – from production to curating and organizing events.
Today, I bring these worlds together as Co-Founder of Studio Excite, an event agency focused on creating unique live experiences, and Associate Director Live Marketing at Fidelity International, a global asset management company providing investment solutions and financial services to individuals and institutions – creating experiences that connect people, brands, and culture.

LIVE MARKETING & EVENT
I create experiences across different worlds – from international corporate formats to lifestyle, beauty, music, and culture.
Always with one goal: to create moments that resonate. Experiences that bring people together, feel right in the moment, and stay beyond it.
This includes formats from influencer and PR events to brand and content productions, as well as proprietary music formats. From exclusive concerts at Soho House and curated electronic event series with international artists to collaborations with brands such as adidas with Leon Goretzka, BOSS, Marc Jacobs, Parsa Beauty, and Coty with Lena Gercke.
In the corporate space, I work on international formats for brands like SAP, Merck, and Fidelity International – including large-scale global events. During the pandemic, this expanded into digital formats, such as one of the first large-scale digital editions of the New World Summits featuring speakers like Mario Draghi. Today, this extends into webinars and hybrid experiences.
Sport remains a constant. With formats like the Taktik Talk, I bring perspectives from professional football into new contexts – working with figures from the German Football Association, including Rudi Völler and Sandro Wagner. In the end, it’s always about inspiring people. And creating experiences that stay.

DFB A-License Coach
(UEFA A Level)
My journey in football began in the professional youth academy environment.
As an A-license coach, I worked within elite youth football structures at 1. FC Kaiserslautern (2015–2017) and SV Wehen Wiesbaden (2011–2015) – shaping teams, developing players, and competing at the highest level of youth football.
Across different age groups, this included multiple championship-winning seasons, among them unbeaten titles and league successes at U14 and U17 level.
At 1. FC Kaiserslautern, this led to one of the club’s first U17 regional league championships in years, followed by responsibility at Bundesliga level.
Beyond coaching, I was part of the club’s sporting advisory board, working closely with the professional department to further develop and refine the club’s football philosophy. In parallel, I contributed as an external speaker for the BDFL, delivering coaching education and sharing practical insights from my work in elite youth football.
During the U17 Bundesliga season, I made the conscious decision to shift my focus towards live and sports marketing – building on the same principles of performance, structure, and team dynamics beyond the pitch.
Record & Highlights (2011 - 2017)
162 games played: 111 wins, 22 draws, 29 losses, 359 points
2015/2016

2013/2014

In the 2013/2014 season, I led the U14 team as Head Coach to win the U15 Gruppenliga championship, competing successfully against older age groups.
