Communication is my strength. As a coach as well as a consultant, I work in the area of sustainable resource management: I support individuals and institutions in recognizing and using their own resources in order to effectively achieve their self-defined goals and desired impact. My doctoral thesis at the University of Wageningen (NL) also focused on sustainable choices, namely how small-scale farmers in Ghana opt for or against innovations on land management. The research results have made an important contribution to more effective development cooperation. Before completing my PhD thesis, I completed a Master in Integrated Water Resources Management in Jordan and a Bachelor in Environmental Management in Germany and Chile (Concepción).
